The '''496th issue''' of [[Doctor Who Magazine]] was cover dated [[March (releases)|March]] [[2016 (releases)|2016]].


It was the first issue of ''DWM'' to predominantly feature [[John Hurt]] as the [[War Doctor]] on the cover. It also used the traditional headline "John Hurt is the War Doctor", although the use here was a special case, as it normally was used to indicate the recasting of [[the Doctor]], and John Hurt's Doctor was introduced retroactively, as well as the fact the headline was modified to denote him specifically as the "War" Doctor; instead, it was used to celebrate his return to the role in a line of [[Big Finish Productions]] audios called ''[[The War Doctor (audio series)|The War Doctor]]'', making a technical debut outside the linear progression of the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' television series.
