mustang6172:
Is there supposed to be something on the home page?  I just see a blank space where a comic would be.

pwhodges:
There's a sketch pf Claire; photographed with his phone, so it's a jpeg, not a png or gif..

Carl-E:
Same here, but I'm using IE on a new (!!) computer, and I guess It's just not configured right or something. 

I "viewed source" and found the image address in the code;

http://www.questionablecontent.net/images/snowedin.jpg

so, there you have it.  Don't know how to get IE to show it - gotta download Firefox. 

pwhodges:
The page is corrupt; it contains a malformed comment which the browsers are reacting differently to (the terminator is "--!>" instead of "-->"; strictly IE is probably being the good boy here), and the top menu still sees yesterday's comic as the last.  Jeph probably edited the page in a hurry or under adverse circumstances, or even on his iPhone.

Carl-E:
I  noticed the odd closer - Firefox has been downloaded and shows it fine.  It strikes me that the close-bracket (>) should allow the following command to be read anyway, even if the previous command is corrupt; in that respect, I'm surprised IE is so unforgiving, especially since it's still able to show all the other items that follow the corrupt code, such as the links list and ads...

But that's a whole different tirade.
