The Comics Kingdom weekly comic “Gearhead Gertie” has been added to the comics aggregator. This comic doesn’t seem to be published on the same day consistently every week, so on days when it’s not published, you’ll see the “Click here to learn how to read Comics Kingdom comics in the aggregator” message. Speaking of which,… Read More »
The Comics Kingdom Sundays-only comic “Flash Forward” has been added to the comics aggregator. Note that you have to pay for a subscription to Comics Kingdom to view its comics through the aggregator, and then work with me to get you set up for it, as documented in the aggregator user guide.
I have updated the comics aggregator so that it now supports all available Comics Kingdom comics. Note that you need to pay Comics Kingdom for a subscription if you want to access its comics through the aggregator. See here for details.

Good columnists accompany all three with a healthy… Read More »
Some time in the past month, the folks over at GoComics.com made a minor change to their site regarding formatting one-digit dates which broke the comics aggregator’s parsing code when the month rolled over from August 31 (two digits) to September 1 (one). I’ve fixed it. GoComics comics currently available in the aggregator are Adam@Home, Arlo… Read More »
I’ve added support for the wonderful webcomic “Strong Female Protagonist” to the comics aggregator. I heartily recommend it. I also heartily recommend that you support its continued publication by donating or buying swag (see the links at the top of strongfemaleprotagonist.com). Enjoy!
UPDATE: As of 10:44am Eastern time, GoComics says this should be resolved, and I am seeing GoComics comics in the aggregator. Let me know if you notice any that are still missing. Alas, GoComics.com is missing many of today’s comics. You won’t be able to see them in the aggregator until GoComics publishes them. The… Read More »
I put together a basic user guide for the comics aggregator. Enjoy! Comics Aggregator user guide
