'''Doctor Who Magazine'''` (formerly '''Doctor Who Weekly'''), is currently a four-weekly periodical that publishes Doctor Who news, reviews, articles and [[Doctor Who Magazine comic strips|comic stories]]. Originally launched by the UK branch of [[Marvel Comics]], ''Doctor Who Weekly'' began publication in [[1979|October 1979]]. It later changed to a monthly publication. Marvel continued to publish the magazine until the late 1990s when it was sold to Panini Publishing Ltd. which continues to publish it as of 2009.

'''''Doctor Who Magazine''''' is the world's longest running magazine based on a television series.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://gallifreynewsbase.blogspot.com/2010/04/doctor-who-magazine-wins-guinness-world.html |title=Doctor Who Magazine wins Guinness World Record |author=Marcus |date of source=01 April, 2010 |website name=Doctor Who News |accessdate=26 February 2013}}</ref><ref>Touted on the magazine's cover from [[DWM 421|issue 421]].</ref> It is currently published every four weeks and offers ''[[Doctor Who]]'' news, reviews, articles and [[DWM comic stories|comic stories]]. There are also occasional [[Doctor Who Magazine Special Edition|standalone publications]]. The abbreviation "DWM" is widely used in fandom to refer to the magazine, even though it has had other names that do not fit the acronym.


Over the years, the title of `'''Doctor Who Magazine'''` has changed slightly. Each of the name changes have been subtle, and very broadly speaking reflect a change of editor and direction for the title. Continuity however remains intact throughout.
The magazine was born as ''Doctor Who Weekly'', published by the UK branch of [[Marvel Comics]] in mid-October 1979. The first issue arrived on newsstands midway through broadcast of ''[[City of Death (TV story)|City of Death]]'', and [[Tom Baker]] spent some time promoting it while in the midst of production of the ultimately cancelled ''[[Shada (TV story)|Shada]]''. At this time, a weekly comic was still a popular format in the United Kingdom. ''Doctor Who Weekly''{{'}}s initial cover price was 12 pence, at the time roughly equivalent to 25 American cents.


In October 2008, DWM published its 400th issue. It is currently the longest-running professionally published magazine based upon an English-language television series.  
With its [[DWM 44|44th issue]] in September 1980, Marvel switched the magazine to monthly publication. Its title was changed to ''Doctor Who - A Marvel Monthly'', then in 1982 to ''Doctor Who Monthly''. In 1984, the title was changed again, to ''The Official Doctor Who Magazine'' and in 1985 to ''The Doctor Who Magazine''. Since [[DWM 107|issue 107]], published in December 1985, the title has been, simply, ''Doctor Who Magazine''. The title changes, very broadly speaking, reflected a change of editor or direction for the title. The continuity of the numbering system — largely the indication of whether a title is considered "continuously published" — has remained intact from October 1979 to the present day.

Since its first issue, a major feature of each issue has been an ongoing comic strip based upon the series. It has featured adventures of every incarnation of the Doctor and many of their TV companions. There have also been, from time to time, “back-up” comic strips featuring different characters. During the 1990s, DWM was affiliated with the [[Virgin New Adventures]] book line, publishing [[DWM prose stories|short stories]] (dubbed "[[Brief Encounter]]s") related to the books and comic strips that linked closely with current [[New Adventures]] novels.

The magazine's logo generally resembled the current on-screen series logo. Notable exceptions include the period from 1991 to 1999, when the magazine reverted to the "diamond logo" associated with the late [[Jon Pertwee]] and most of the [[Tom Baker]] era; DWM belatedly switched to the logo introduced in the [[Paul McGann]] [[Doctor Who (TV story)|TV movie]] in 1999 and it remained in use until it adopted a variation of the logo used for the revived TV series in 2005.

'''Doctor Who Magazine''' has been in continuous publication since its launch offering special editions each year in addition to its regular issues.
[[Marvel UK]] published the magazine until [[DWM 236]] in 1996 when it was sold to [[Panini Comics|Panini Publishing Ltd]]. Marvel Comics continued to publish DWM as a division of Panini until [[DWM 285]] in 1999. Panini continues to publish Doctor Who Magazine {{as of|2024|lc=y}}.


A number of sister publications at various times have been published, with some ongoing features alternating between titles.
Over the years, many writers connected with the series have written for the magazine and others who have written for DWM have contributed to ''Doctor Who'' or its spin-offs. Correspondence collected over the course of several years between ''Doctor Who'' producer and lead writer [[Russell T Davies]] and DWM writer [[Benjamin Cook]] were collected in the book ''[[Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale]]'' in 2008; an expanded second edition was published in early 2010. The comic strip has, to date, been used as source material for two television stories: 2010's ''[[The Lodger (TV story)|The Lodger]]'' and 2023’s ''[[The Star Beast]]''. Contributors to DWM have also been featured in other similar publications such as [[Doctor Who annual|''Doctor Who'' annuals]], [[Doctor Who Yearbook|Yearbooks]] and [[Doctor Who Storybook|Storybooks]].


*[[Doctor Who Magazine (special issues)]]
In October 2008, DWM published its 400th issue. It celebrated its thirtieth anniversary in October 2009. It published its 500th issue in June 2016. In October 2019, DWM celebrated its 40th anniversary with [[DWM 544]], and published its 600th issue in February 2024. It is recognised as the longest-running professionally published and licensed magazine based on an English-language television series; its associated comic strip is the longest-running comic based upon an English-language television series to be published without interruption.

In an appearance on ''Friday Night with Jonathan Ross'' in October 2006, [[Billie Piper]] revealed she was a regular subscriber to DWM and that she loved the magazine, defending it when Ross attempted to dismiss it as "only for geeks". (CD: ''[[Doctor Who at the BBC: The Tenth Doctor]]'') [[Alexa Havins]], in an interview published in [[DWM 437]], also said she was a fan of the magazine, which was often available for reading on the set of ''[[Series 4 (Torchwood)|Torchwood: Miracle Day]]''.


'''Doctor Who Magazine''' has also contributed, throughout its various regular and special issues, to the continuation of the Doctor's comic strip adventures, helping to make it the longest running ongoing comic strip related to a television series in the world.
In addition to these superlatives, ''Doctor Who Magazine'' is a survivor of the print medium, having now outlasted many long-running science fiction-based publications such as ''Starlog'', which have in recent years abandoned print for website-only productions or closed down completely. In January 2010 the magazine was relaunched with a new look. In 2011, it published its first 100-page issue. In January 2013, the magazine was again redesigned, with the physical dimensions of issues being changed. In late 2013, a ''Doctor Who Magazine'' app was launched, allowing users to purchase easily navigable digital versions of issues.


The TARDIS Index File uses the prefix [[DWM]] to refer to fiction (in comic or prose form) printed in this publication.

==Distribution outside the UK==
=== By "era" ===
Distribution of DWM and its forebears outside the UK has been sporadic. The original ''Weekly'' incarnation was not circulated in North America, but regular distribution through Marvel US occurred in the 1980s after it had moved to monthly distribution, and continued to the late 1990s. After ownership of the magazine switched to Panini, distribution in North America became less widespread, with many magazine shops and comic book retailers not carrying it anymore, or only carrying occasional issues. Widespread release of DWM through standard newsstands began anew with issue 394, which was widely distributed in North America in May 2008 (distribution in that region is currently running several weeks behind the UK; issue 395, which carries a cover date of 28 May 2008, was not distributed in North America until the week of 16 June).
From 1979 through to November 1985 the magazine was known by a variety of titles, including ''Doctor Who Weekly'' and names that referred to its monthly status. Issues in the following pages are arranged by the "eras" when the magazine was known by a slew of titles titles.

==Inserts and special features==
=== By year ===
From the very beginning, occasional DWM (or ...Weekly, ...Monthly, etc) issues have featured special bonus items and inserts. The first few issues in 1979 came with free transfers, for example, and many issues have come packaged with posters and other paraphernalia. Other notable items included with DWM releases over the years have included flexi-discs of soundtrack music, CDs of specially commissioned audio dramas by [[Big Finish]], and in the summer of 2008, issue 397 came packaged with one of 27 vintage [[Target novelisation]]s (or related books).
From [[DWM 107|issue 107]] in December 1985, the magazine was retitled, dropping "The" from its name to become, as it is known today, ''Doctor Who Magazine''. All issues following this change are arranged by ''year'' based on their {{wi|cover date}}; this is the date that is listed on the front of the magazine and indicates the last date the issue was current. It is ''not'' a publication date, rather it can be viewed as an expiry date.

== Comic strip reprints ==
Over the years, the ''Doctor Who'' comic strip has been reprinted – [[DWM colourised comic reprints|often with colour added]] (it was published in black-and-white prior to late 2001) – in a number of different publications. In the United States, [[Marvel Comics]] and, more recently, [[IDW Publishing]] have issued reprint titles in comic book and graphic novel format. Panini has reissued the comic strips in deluxe omnibus form and in magazine-sized publications (see [[Doctor Who Magazine graphic novels]]).
 
== Distribution outside the UK ==
Distribution of DWM and its forebears outside the UK has been sporadic. In areas where ''Doctor Who'' has been popular it has found limited distribution through specialty stores such as comic book shops and cult/fantasy shops.
 
During the ''Doctor Who Weekly'' era of the magazine it was not circulated in North America, but regular distribution through Marvel US occurred during the 1980s, following its move to monthly publication. This continued into the late 1990s. When ownership of the magazine shifted to Panini, distribution in North America became less widespread. Few magazine shops and comic book retailers carried it month-to-month, only occasional issues.
 
The re-emergence in the popularity of ''Doctor Who'' post-2005 has meant that ''Doctor Who Magazine'' can be found in most newsagents within Australia.
 
Due to distance considerations for areas such as North America and Australia, (two of the larger markets for the magazine) the magazine is often available on or after its cover date, rather than the few weeks prior the magazine is distributed locally in the United Kingdom.
 
Whilst this lag time often means articles intended to promote upcoming episodes in the United Kingdom arrive overseas out of sync with their UK broadcasts, they sometimes fall into sync with their local broadcasts. However the lag time does impact on a reader's ability to participate in deadline-specific activities such as contests, polls and surveys. Aside from this, the magazines generally arrive intact, including giveaways and premiums such as free CDs and cards included with the original UK release.
 
== Inserts and special features ==
From the very beginning, occasional magazine issues have featured special [[Free gifts (Doctor Who Magazine)|bonus items and inserts]]. The first few issues in 1979 came with free transfers and many issues have come packaged with posters and other paraphernalia. These premiums have become less frequent in recent years, but still occur at least a couple times a year.
 
Notable items included with ''DWM'' releases over the years have included flexi-discs of soundtrack music, CDs of specially commissioned audio dramas by [[Big Finish Productions]] and in the summer of 2008, issue [[DWM 397|397]] came packaged with one of twenty-seven vintage [[Target novelisation]]s (or related books). [[DWM 411|Issue 411]] in August 2009 included a code that allowed readers to download an exclusive Big Finish audio drama, ''[[The Mists of Time (audio story)|The Mists of Time]]'', for a limited time. All issues following this issue that included a free or exclusive audio story with the magazine included it in this matter, as a digital download rather than as a physical CD.
 
Unusually, as many magazines strip inserts before shipping overseas due to licensing issues (or are prevented from international distribution as a result such as ''[[Doctor Who Adventures]]''), ''DWM''<nowiki/>'s international distribution includes most inserts, including the Big Finish CDs/downloads and Target Books bonus.
 
== Special editions and other publications ==
''Doctor Who Magazine'' has been in continuous publication since its launch, offering special editions each year in addition to its regular issues.
 
A number of sister publications have been published at various times. Some ongoing features alternated between titles.
 
* [[Doctor Who Magazine (special issues)|''Doctor Who Magazine'' (special issues)]] (Marvel produced specials)
* [[Doctor Who Classic Comics|''Doctor Who Classic Comics'']]
* [[Doctor Who Poster Magazine|''Doctor Who Poster Magazine'']]
* [[Doctor Who Marvel Adventure Comic|''Doctor Who Marvel Adventure Comic'']] (crisp promotion editions)
* [[Doctor Who Magazine graphic novels|''Doctor Who Magazine'' graphic novels]]
* [[Doctor Who Magazine Special Editions|''Doctor Who Magazine Special Editions'']] (Panini produced specials – ongoing releases)
* [[The Essential Doctor Who|''The Essential Doctor Who'']] (previously [[Doctor Who 50 Years (series)|Doctor Who 50 Years]]; Panini produced "bookazines")
 
In addition, ''DWM'' editorial staff also oversaw a spin-off publication, ''[[Doctor Who Insider]]'', which Panini initially published exclusively for North American markets.
 
== Fanzine ==
In January 2010, ''Doctor Who Magazine'' became possibly the only fan-focused magazine to itself become the subject of a fanzine, with the launch of'' [[Vworp Vworp!]]'', a fanzine dedicated to the ''Doctor Who'' comic strips and the history of DWM.

You may be looking for the magazine as it exists within the Doctor's universe or a version of the magazine from an alternate universe.

Doctor Who Magazine is the world's longest running magazine based on a television series.[1][2] It is currently published every four weeks and offers Doctor Who news, reviews, articles and comic stories. There are also occasional standalone publications. The abbreviation "DWM" is widely used in fandom to refer to the magazine, even though it has had other names that do not fit the acronym.

The magazine was born as Doctor Who Weekly, published by the UK branch of Marvel Comics in mid-October 1979. The first issue arrived on newsstands midway through broadcast of City of Death, and Tom Baker spent some time promoting it while in the midst of production of the ultimately cancelled Shada. At this time, a weekly comic was still a popular format in the United Kingdom. Doctor Who Weekly's initial cover price was 12 pence, at the time roughly equivalent to 25 American cents.

With its 44th issue in September 1980, Marvel switched the magazine to monthly publication. Its title was changed to Doctor Who - A Marvel Monthly, then in 1982 to Doctor Who Monthly. In 1984, the title was changed again, to The Official Doctor Who Magazine and in 1985 to The Doctor Who Magazine. Since issue 107, published in December 1985, the title has been, simply, Doctor Who Magazine. The title changes, very broadly speaking, reflected a change of editor or direction for the title. The continuity of the numbering system — largely the indication of whether a title is considered "continuously published" — has remained intact from October 1979 to the present day.

Since its first issue, a major feature of each issue has been an ongoing comic strip based upon the series. It has featured adventures of every incarnation of the Doctor and many of their TV companions. There have also been, from time to time, “back-up” comic strips featuring different characters. During the 1990s, DWM was affiliated with the Virgin New Adventures book line, publishing short stories (dubbed "Brief Encounters") related to the books and comic strips that linked closely with current New Adventures novels.

Issue 120, dated January 1987.

The magazine's logo generally resembled the current on-screen series logo. Notable exceptions include the period from 1991 to 1999, when the magazine reverted to the "diamond logo" associated with the late Jon Pertwee and most of the Tom Baker era; DWM belatedly switched to the logo introduced in the Paul McGann TV movie in 1999 and it remained in use until it adopted a variation of the logo used for the revived TV series in 2005.

Marvel UK published the magazine until DWM 236 in 1996 when it was sold to Panini Publishing Ltd. Marvel Comics continued to publish DWM as a division of Panini until DWM 285 in 1999. Panini continues to publish Doctor Who Magazine as of 2024.

Over the years, many writers connected with the series have written for the magazine and others who have written for DWM have contributed to Doctor Who or its spin-offs. Correspondence collected over the course of several years between Doctor Who producer and lead writer Russell T Davies and DWM writer Benjamin Cook were collected in the book Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale in 2008; an expanded second edition was published in early 2010. The comic strip has, to date, been used as source material for two television stories: 2010's The Lodger and 2023’s The Star Beast. Contributors to DWM have also been featured in other similar publications such as Doctor Who annuals, Yearbooks and Storybooks.

In October 2008, DWM published its 400th issue. It celebrated its thirtieth anniversary in October 2009. It published its 500th issue in June 2016. In October 2019, DWM celebrated its 40th anniversary with DWM 544, and published its 600th issue in February 2024. It is recognised as the longest-running professionally published and licensed magazine based on an English-language television series; its associated comic strip is the longest-running comic based upon an English-language television series to be published without interruption.

Issue 480, dated December 2014.

In an appearance on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross in October 2006, Billie Piper revealed she was a regular subscriber to DWM and that she loved the magazine, defending it when Ross attempted to dismiss it as "only for geeks". (CD: Doctor Who at the BBC: The Tenth Doctor) Alexa Havins, in an interview published in DWM 437, also said she was a fan of the magazine, which was often available for reading on the set of Torchwood: Miracle Day.

In addition to these superlatives, Doctor Who Magazine is a survivor of the print medium, having now outlasted many long-running science fiction-based publications such as Starlog, which have in recent years abandoned print for website-only productions or closed down completely. In January 2010 the magazine was relaunched with a new look. In 2011, it published its first 100-page issue. In January 2013, the magazine was again redesigned, with the physical dimensions of issues being changed. In late 2013, a Doctor Who Magazine app was launched, allowing users to purchase easily navigable digital versions of issues.

Regular issues[[edit] | [edit source]]

Further information relating to the various periods of the magazine's publication can be found through the links below.

By "era"[[edit] | [edit source]]

From 1979 through to November 1985 the magazine was known by a variety of titles, including Doctor Who Weekly and names that referred to its monthly status. Issues in the following pages are arranged by the "eras" when the magazine was known by a slew of titles titles.

By year[[edit] | [edit source]]

From issue 107 in December 1985, the magazine was retitled, dropping "The" from its name to become, as it is known today, Doctor Who Magazine. All issues following this change are arranged by year based on their cover date; this is the date that is listed on the front of the magazine and indicates the last date the issue was current. It is not a publication date, rather it can be viewed as an expiry date.

Comic strip reprints[[edit] | [edit source]]

Over the years, the Doctor Who comic strip has been reprinted – often with colour added (it was published in black-and-white prior to late 2001) – in a number of different publications. In the United States, Marvel Comics and, more recently, IDW Publishing have issued reprint titles in comic book and graphic novel format. Panini has reissued the comic strips in deluxe omnibus form and in magazine-sized publications (see Doctor Who Magazine graphic novels).

Distribution outside the UK[[edit] | [edit source]]

Distribution of DWM and its forebears outside the UK has been sporadic. In areas where Doctor Who has been popular it has found limited distribution through specialty stores such as comic book shops and cult/fantasy shops.

During the Doctor Who Weekly era of the magazine it was not circulated in North America, but regular distribution through Marvel US occurred during the 1980s, following its move to monthly publication. This continued into the late 1990s. When ownership of the magazine shifted to Panini, distribution in North America became less widespread. Few magazine shops and comic book retailers carried it month-to-month, only occasional issues.

The re-emergence in the popularity of Doctor Who post-2005 has meant that Doctor Who Magazine can be found in most newsagents within Australia.

Due to distance considerations for areas such as North America and Australia, (two of the larger markets for the magazine) the magazine is often available on or after its cover date, rather than the few weeks prior the magazine is distributed locally in the United Kingdom.

Whilst this lag time often means articles intended to promote upcoming episodes in the United Kingdom arrive overseas out of sync with their UK broadcasts, they sometimes fall into sync with their local broadcasts. However the lag time does impact on a reader's ability to participate in deadline-specific activities such as contests, polls and surveys. Aside from this, the magazines generally arrive intact, including giveaways and premiums such as free CDs and cards included with the original UK release.

Inserts and special features[[edit] | [edit source]]

From the very beginning, occasional magazine issues have featured special bonus items and inserts. The first few issues in 1979 came with free transfers and many issues have come packaged with posters and other paraphernalia. These premiums have become less frequent in recent years, but still occur at least a couple times a year.

Notable items included with DWM releases over the years have included flexi-discs of soundtrack music, CDs of specially commissioned audio dramas by Big Finish Productions and in the summer of 2008, issue 397 came packaged with one of twenty-seven vintage Target novelisations (or related books). Issue 411 in August 2009 included a code that allowed readers to download an exclusive Big Finish audio drama, The Mists of Time, for a limited time. All issues following this issue that included a free or exclusive audio story with the magazine included it in this matter, as a digital download rather than as a physical CD.

Unusually, as many magazines strip inserts before shipping overseas due to licensing issues (or are prevented from international distribution as a result such as Doctor Who Adventures), DWM's international distribution includes most inserts, including the Big Finish CDs/downloads and Target Books bonus.

Special editions and other publications[[edit] | [edit source]]

Doctor Who Magazine has been in continuous publication since its launch, offering special editions each year in addition to its regular issues.

A number of sister publications have been published at various times. Some ongoing features alternated between titles.

In addition, DWM editorial staff also oversaw a spin-off publication, Doctor Who Insider, which Panini initially published exclusively for North American markets.

Fanzine[[edit] | [edit source]]

In January 2010, Doctor Who Magazine became possibly the only fan-focused magazine to itself become the subject of a fanzine, with the launch of Vworp Vworp!, a fanzine dedicated to the Doctor Who comic strips and the history of DWM.
