My cartoon source has been new and improved under new management and I cant log in. I have a paid subscription so I dont want to register (and pay) again; so it may take some time to straighten this out.

Response from GoComics regarding Login trouble.
Ticket 292718: Well, That Didnt Go As Planned... Your request (#292718) has been updated. AMU Support Lead, Apr 2, 2025, 8:39 AM CDT: Hello Mjlegel,
Remember those mornings when your alarm doesnt go off, you spill coffee on your shirt, and then discover your car wont start? Well, our GoComics relaunch day felt a lot like thatexcept with servers instead of cars and thousands of concerned comic lovers instead of just an annoyed boss.
Yesterday, our site experienced several significant traffic surges that knocked our performance sideways. While were thrilled that so many of you love your daily comics fix (we do too!), we clearly werent prepared for just how passionate our community is.
What happened? The short version: our relaunch encountered more hiccups than there are panels in a Sunday edition of Garfield.
What were doing: Our team is working around the clock to improve load times and squash bugs faster than Snoopy chases the Red Baron. You may still experience some glitches today as we continue these improvements. Weve received thousands of messages from concerned readers like you. While it will take some time for human eyeballs to review each specific inquiry, please know that we WILL get to yours, so please do not submit additional emails or leave additional voice messages, which will only slow down our response time. Your message really does matters to us, because we understand these comics arent just entertainmenttheyre part of your daily routine and support the livelihoods of creators we all admire.
Comics have a wonderful way of finding humor in lifes challenges. Were trying to channel that spirit now, even as we take these technical difficulties very seriously.
Thank you for your continued patience and understanding. After all, even Charlie Brown kept trying to kick that football.
Sincerely, The Slightly Frazzled (But Determined) GoComics Team
