Mainsite Archives Damaged

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.
