HP is pure fantasy. Were he and his friends to meet up with Buck Rodgers in the 25th and a half Century, then maybe it could be considered Sci-Fi.

ok you are all being silly http://www.sfx.co.uk/ this is the magazines website they state they cover sci-fi AND Fantasy, they also cover horror are you going to bash them for that?
my good friends gets this magazine every month it has ALWAYS covered fantasy so harry potter is allowed to be there. enough of this debate the magazine covers fantasy and shall continue to do so.
if you want pure sci-fi don't read the magazine simple as that.

SciFi? Fantasy? I thought that whole thing was a 7-part non-fiction biography...

Agreed....SFX is the Earth's Greatest SF and Fantasy Magazine (according to their banner), but I thought the question was what type of animal is HP and I voted on the fantasy ticket.
With the aforementioned banner, SFX has every right to include the young wizard in their coverage. I happen to have enjoyed the books immensely (I still have yet to read them all) so I have no problem with that. Actually I don't read the magazine.
Fantasy, when done right, could be as enjoyable as good SF. Having said that, do any of the HP movies hold a candle to Serenity?
