Growth Request Thread(Read First Post)

Sigh. Well, guys, I'm at my wit's end here. I go through cycles where I purge my collection, try to get it all back, realize that various drives have failed and certain bits-n-bobs can't be re-fetched... well, that's happened with a classy bit of growth from the early 00's, when a little-known artist by the name of Mangakid created a tiny, little comic about "Giantess Lisa" (who is now back, in a big way). The jist of it is this: I no longer have it, I can no longer find it, and even the originator is trying to track it down. So, help me give something back: help me bring this artist back to his roots.

UPDATE: I tracked down the comic, although data-mining the Wayback isn't exactly a huge deal.
Once I figure out some way to arrange payments to Mangakid, 100% of the proceeds of any downloads will go to him, and the comic will be uploaded.
Yes, that's right: I will NOT make ANY profit off of his works.
I think this is a good idea in general; when you don't have an artist's permission to repost their older works, why not see to it that the originator gets the proceeds?
