Newark was the epicentre of their problems, I understand.

I also couldn't access the site the whole (German) day. Is this a problem specific to Germany? I checked on isitdownrightnow.com a few times which said everything was fine, but according to the comments, a few people still had the same problem. Somebody wrote it had something to do with a change of IP adress for the site. Apparently the problem could be resolved by using a different DNS server (I actually do not know much about this stuff, so I didn't change my DNS server...).
KOK:
I have had no problem accessing comic and forum several times throughout the day from two locations in Denmark.

They have caching node sites in many countries. The status link in my previous message shows problems at several US nodes, Frankfurt, and Hong Kong. But they had routing problems in Newark which prevented some data getting through to nodes which were in themselves working - so that although London is shown as having no problems today, I did in fact have problems this morning. Testing sites like isitdownrightnow.com often test at several places as well, so may get a different answer from your own experience.
They strike me as a not terribly reliable service; but the service level that is being used for QC is free, so maybe paid users get priority in fixes or workarounds.

While I couldn't access the comic this morning, it was easy enough to find on tumblr. That seems to be a handy backup approach.
