You're right, it's going against comics.com. But I've cleared the browser cache (both 32bit and 64bit ie), and definitely replaced the comx.xml. And reloaded with !, of course. And via the >> menu. And I'm even getting the popup, so that's a sure sign it's not the original comx.xml. I'm going to

Maybe it has something to do with comics pulled from ucomics.com.  Try viewing 'Dick Tracy' using both of the following methods to see if they work:   comx /dicktracy or comx /dicktracy /nopopup   If neither work, try clearing your browser cache and try again.   Steve - Original Message Fr
