As I went to get today's strip from Toons for Our Times I saw I am out of Sunday strips in the book. I went back and counted, there are only 42 published.

As some of you may recall, a few months ago my source changed their website preventing me from accessing daily strips, so i went back to using the book. The downside is, the quality, but also Berkley curated the stories that made it into the books.

I am going to revisit the source and try the script i have from m_f and see if I can get it to work. If not I may subscribe for a month and download as much as I can.

Have you tried sourcing from digital collections? I'm guessing you could either buy them online, or if there are issues with that, pull them from LibGen or AA, etc.

As always, thanks for your efforts, here!

The only digital collection, to my knowledge, is the one I used previously, that changed its website to block me from viewing, or downloading the strip without a subscription.

I am using a digital copy of Toons For Our Times from AA. I also own two physical copies of it. The problem is, it omitted a number of daily strips, and 10 Sunday strips.

Whoops, yeah. No hits on LibGen / AA for Sundays, specifically. I can't remember the last time I've seen something like that. Oh well.
