How is this image still so clean and not riddled with compression marks? I had this excact cartoon as a printout on the side of my tower in 2003. I had thought that this only can still exists as a copy of a copy of a copy. But it looks like it was scanned copied from the source.
John Jonik, the maker of this comic, maintains a website with high-quality images of many of his comics.
as long as the first scan wasnt made as .jpg it shouldnt lose quality over time (and getting saved again and again). SOmething like PNG should stay the same
