I had some success with pocket book sized manga on my Kobo. I converted jpeg to cbr and then pdf. News paper style comic-strip type comics did not work out as well. I had issues with page breaks and proportions. But, maybe I just need more practice with Calibre.
Full sized comics were impossible. (I you are interested I used the PD comic site at http://goldenagecomics.co.uk/ for getting test material.)

I think a tablet like the iPad is probably going to be your best bet for tech manuals and periodicals at this point. But I have seen lots of news about larger format devices that are being developed with a major focus on periodicals and content that isn't very friendly with novel sized screens.
