VGCats was a gaming webcomic that ran from 2001 to 2021 created by Scott Ramsoomair hosted on vgcats.com. During that run there were a lot of comics that disappeared or were replaced by other comics, but most of these are findable on WayBack Machine. Comic #199 was replaced twice, originally releasing sometime in July of 2006 - an exact date is hard to find, but it was probably sometime between July 10th and July 15th. The comic's original version was called "Wrath-O-Con Part 1", which involved Leo and Aeris holding a convention panel, with Aeris making fun of the attendees and their costumes. However, Scott apparently thought the comic was too mean to the fans of the comic, so he took it down shortly after it was put up. I've heard that it was allegedly only up for 2 hours before being taken down.
Even rarer is comic #200, which was supposed to release in 2006, then 2009, but never ended up releasing at all. Barely any information on this comic exists on the internet, and after/during 2009 the title for the comic on the website's archive was changed from "TBA 2009" to "TBA Never," and it was never released publicly. But when looking around the website Flickr for VGCats, you'll find a photo from a convention panel Scott held at Auchinawa 2006 where a photo supposedly from comic 200 was shown, but all that's seen is Leo wearing a cone on his head, saying "I am looking silly," along with the image on a green background.

I have been unable to find any information about either of these comics on the internet, and was hoping, by small chance, someone may know more about these, or have comic 199 in some form.
