I have a difficult one: the comic is Pictures for Sad Children. It doesn’t have a signature. It got nuked off the web when the creator had a breakdown (I think). The creator disappeared and has since transitioned, so attributing it to the then-published name would be deadnaming someone. How should it be attributed?
I think that’s an iffy area, because whats the differentiation between “The image I found was already like that” and someone intentionally removing it.
Unless they admitted to it like some have, I don’t see that as easily enforceable.

This is more of a matter of not removing artist credits that were there. If it never existed then it’s fine.
