This is a bigger change, but I am almost done: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kdeplasma-addons/-/tree/work/alex/comic_dataengine

What is missing right now is the automatic fixing when there was no internet connection when the comic was requested, but later there is internet access.

Edit: The code for refreshing the comic on network status change seems to be broken, it is fixed with the latest state of the branch.

Also, I wonder about the cache thingy. We cache images, but not the initial request to parse the html. Meaning while being offline, the applet can not display and data.
