Comics aggregator: more new comics, other improvements

By | October 26, 2026

I want to reiterate that I am putting a lot of work into making the aggregator robust and reliable and I it would be great if those of you who are using it would chip in and support it.

New comics

  • Dark Side of the Horse
  • Day by Dave
  • Deep Dark Fears
  • DeFlocked
  • Don Brutus
  • Doodle Town
  • Eek!
  • El Café de Poncho
  • The Elderberries
  • Endtown
  • Eyebeam
  • Farcus
  • Fat Cats
  • FoxTrot Classics
  • FoxTrot en Español
  • Frank and Ernest
  • Fred Basset en Español
  • Freshly Squeezed
  • Frog Applause
  • Funky Winkerbean
  • FurBabies

Improved comics

“Dick Tracy” is now being pulled from GoComics in addition to Comics Kingdom, so it is now accessible in the aggregator to people without a Comics Kingdom subscription.

The “Batch Rejection” strip which I added yesterday was broken and is now fixed.

Coming from GoComics in addition to ArcaMax

These will have improved resolution when GoComics is working:

  • Daddy’s Home
  • Diamond Lil
  • Dinette Set
  • Dogs of C-Kennel
  • Flo & Friends
  • For Heaven’s Sake
  • Free Range
  • Fowl Language

A special note about “Fowl Language”: GoComics and ArcaMax publish this strip on different days, so you’re going to see duplicate strips in your feed if you subscribe to this one. Repetition is better than losing strips if GoComics freaks out again! But if it manages to stabilize for a while I may end up disabling the ArcaMax puller for this strip.

More improvements to GoComics fetching

The GoComics fetcher is now robust and should work much more reliably. We’ll see if this new implementation lasts us for a while or if they escalate the blocking and I end up having to rebuild it again.
