Trying to view the comics from 6/30/2006, 7/3/2006, and 7/7/2006 (the road trip saga and one of the third grader entries, I believe) all result in the redirection error message.
But wait, because /2006/07/08 is the same as /2006/07/09, and "news" in both pages brings you to 2006/07/07
"back" on /2006/07/05 brings you incorrectly to /2006/07/03. Should be 2006/07/04. In the "04" page, "news" brings you to "03".
"back" on 2006/07/04 brings you incorrectly to 2006/06/30. It should be 2006/0702. "news" link brings you to a redirect page.
2006/07/01 and 2006/07/02 are the same page. "back" brings incorrectly to 2006/06/28. It should be 2006/06/29.
2006/06/29 and 2006/06/28 are the same, and both "news" links bring you to 2006/06/28, which is a redirect.
I think that the mechanism you use to upload things to the webpage is hopelessly broken and you should repair it. (*) I repair websites all day, and I don't want to play catch-that-dynamic-webpage-bug when I stop to browse online comics!
Regards. Hope you solve so I can read your webcomic easier.
(*) Or at least put some sanity check that warns you when something is broken. There are some older comics that also had broken links, but they were very sparse and I said nothing. Now it's several comics in a row. This footnote sign is not an asshole.
(**) Sorry for such a lame username. It was the only that I could find not taken or disallowed. How can 43f43rf43werf34 be disallowed? Seriously, your register page hates me.
The next button for 10/29/2004 loops back onto itself, and the next strip, 10/31/2004 is missing both coming backwards from 11/03/2004 and coming in from the archive.
Is this what the thread is for? Pointing things like that out? Every time I come across one like that I always think "I should tell them, it will be a pain to fix, but if it was me I would rather know" but only today did I think to register with the forum and find an appropriate topic.

That URL works for me, Ramius. I can also see the comic normally, by pressing "Back" from today's comic. I haven't checked it since the day it was first posted though.

Nooo! Where's "Too Damn Late" with Bruce Campbell?
You too, huh? I'm seeing the same thing.
Hello:
I like your comic, but I'm tired of your "back" links not working. See:
Here, on hitting "back" you get 2006/07/07 which is a redirect page:
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/07/10
The correct link is:
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/07/09
But wait, because /2006/07/08 is the same as /2006/07/09, and "news" in both pages brings you to 2006/07/07

"back" on 2006/07/04 brings you incorrectly to 2006/06/30. It should be 2006/0702. "news" link brings you to a redirect page.

The Low Res version works, however.

Am I the only one who gets a Google image instead of the comic?
The low res one is still there though.

And this one is... a banner ad for Chase Platinum?
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/02/11
- it redirects to 2002/02/08; the image itself (http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2002/20020211h.gif) is present though.
At night, the ice weasels come."
I'm not getting a comic there and when I do "view image" I get this:

Needs a .jpg at the end.
http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2005/20051114l.jpg
it doens't load right for me - the JPEG seems corrupted, the 2nd half of the picture doesn't load for me (you get the grey hash).
What the dickens?
edit: also latest Firefox.
wait
nevermind
The comic image doesn't load...
Is it just me??

Thanks for the help guys!
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/01/01
and
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2003/01/01
have the exact same strip.
also,
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/12/27
and
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/12/28
except different titles, so maybe a joke.
Are the links messed up or are these the right comics?
Also, i'm 80% sure that
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2003/01/06
is a repeat of an older comic.
Cardboard and Steel part 5 repeats itself for some reason.

ZAPP BRANNIGAN: Kif, I have made it with a woman! Inform the crew!
Fry: Why am I sticky and naked? Did I miss something fun?
Bender: Ahhh, what an awful dream. Ones and zeroes everywhere... and I thought I saw a two!
I can not.
(Please do not gift. My game bank is already full.)
In the meantime, pipthefair rehosted it for everyone in the SE++ comic thread.
I was able to find the rehosted comic on the forums, but the comic never went live on the PA website, as far as I can tell.
The new comic (but not the newspost) is up for today, but if you go back to the previous comic, there is nothing there, still. Just fyi. :P
Do you get a "broken image" link? Can you right-click on that and go to properties to see what URL it gives you?
If not, can you view-source on the page and look for a URL that contains 20070629.jpg?
Is the URL the same as this, and does this direct URL work for you?
