CC DL-UPSCALER

I love Sequential Art. But I don't always have a stable connection (And it seems the author has some issues with his server every once in a while)... And my sight isn't as good as it used to be... So I made this... Please bear in mind that I made this for entertaining and educative purpose only. Consider supporting the author of this comic if you like his work. Just edit the config.json file if you want to play around with the scripts...
