* ''[[Kid Radd]]'', a cult favorite among those who have been on the Internet a while, originally got [[Screwed by the Network|screwed by the Internet]] with newer releases of IE and Firefox making the comic obsolete (the site was meant to work with IE5 and the original Firefox). Dan Miller, the author, did have multiple methods of viewing the comic — either on downloadable archives or sites where you could find the older versions of IE and Firefox that work perfectly. Unfortunately, AT&T recently shut down its WorldNet Web hosting server, taking all of Dan Miller's wondrous comic with it. Luckily, a fan has saved the online version on his own site, but the fanbase was sweating for a while there.

* Any webcomic that's gone offline, for that matter. ''Jungle Janet'' and ''[[Shredded Moose]]'' were two others. Clan BOB's ''Life of Riley'' was a fairly big long-running comic that disappeared as well.

** This is what happened to the webcomics hosted by online comics syndicator Full Tilt Features. Notably ''Lamtoon'' by Matthew Meskel, which was syndicated via RSS to [[Live Journal]] at the height of its popularity. It went offline when Full Tilt Features went offline, and Meskel never continued the strip afterwards, so ''Lamtoon'' comics are now EXTREMELY rare (but still out there).
