S10 has a 6 megapixel sensor. Theoretically 6 megapixels are good enough for megazine purposes.
However, the production and sale of magazines need more than just pictures. It need quality pictures to attract customers and it has to compete with other similar magazines for them.

I would suggest you look into a dSLR for your purpose, even if it is a cheaper dSLR like Pentax 100D. The reason being compacts have smaller sensors and pictures printed from compacts tend to lose out near the edges, due to noises and so on.
dSLRs has comparatively less of such problem, consequently pictures produced will be more impressive.
