I was going through the archives when the site was updated to the new version, and uh, there are some problems. Specifically, certain comics have magically disappeared.

Note that these are not all of the comics with the problem, just a sampling. It is all quite random, some will work, others just won't. And series of comics, like the Hawk and the Hair, are all broken together. All these comics are around late 2006 and early 2007 cause well, that's where I was when I noticed it and where I am now in the achive.
A direct image link shows... nothing. I think I know why. If you look at the URLs, they have a different structure.

It would appear some comic images were not updated to the new naming convention and location.

Spoiler'd for semi-large image:
For some reason the title header is showing twice and the CSS is broken (appears to be using a different font). This doesn't happen on Tycho's post, just Gabe's. And going back the last few days, I don't see this issue. So it's weird. Looking at the source, it could be Tycho's post - it looks like he has two <span> tags in there but only one closing tag.

Let's try to keep this all in one thread.
These issues are still occurring.
