''No Rest for The Wicket'' seems to have started in late 2002 or early 2003 on a now-vanished website called [https://web.archive.org/web/20030430072223/http://www.icarusfalls.com/wicked/ "icarusfalls.com"]; in October 2005 Peterson moved it to its own domain, where she continued to produce installments until February 28, 2013. The comic abruptly ceased updating after that, with no further posts of any sort by Peterson explaining why. The site remained functional for another seven years, until some point between the end of January and the beginning of February 2020, when it began returning a WordPress error instead of its content. Fortunately the [[Wayback Machine]] kept an archive of it; you can read it [https://web.archive.org/web/20191227182426/http://www.forthewicked.net/ here].
