If I understand your problem correctly, you're referring to the fact that the
comic doesn't seem to be updated when it should?

This is probably an image caching issue. Does reloading the page help? You could
also try a forced reload (which flushes the cache) by pressing Ctrl+F5. I did
have this issue a few times (I don't remember having seen this problem for the
past few months, however), but reloading the page always did the trick.

Can someone else reproduce this bug?
