[[labelnote:note to all editors]]Due to the ever growing number of lost webcomics stemming from fleeting nature of webcomic hosting sites, the fact that the Website/WaybackMachine rarely, if ever, properly archives said sites, and the fact that many webcomic artists have proven themselves to be unreliable and prone to {{Creator Breakdown}}s that involve the [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes deletion of the only available copies of their comics]], we at Tv Tropes are now urging you to save copies of these web comics ([[{{Horrible/Webcomics}} even the bad ones]]) and post these copies on reliable long-term hosts such as [[https://archive.org archive.org]] as mirrors. Be sure to also include a link to said mirrors in their respective comics' works page.[[/labelnote]]

Some webcomics, such as ''PennyArcade'' and ''Webcomic/{{xkcd}}'' have even gained sufficient popular and critical acclaim to earn their creators a living wage from their work, usually via selling TheMerch. As was noted on the NewspaperComics page, the bar for success in sequential art was set fairly low by the old newspaper syndicates and comics publishers, so "a living wage" rather than movie/rock star extravagance is all anyone ever expected to begin with.
