I'm thinking about trading my Kindle Keyboard for a Kindle Paperwhite. Most of the time I just use it to read comics, and I figure that reading them with a touchable and a brighter screen should be a better experience.

But I've been reading about the images support on the Paperwhite, and I still can't understand how can you convert comics flawlessly and put them on the Paperwhite.

Most people say to convert them to MOBI. But, when I do it on Calibre and open the MOBI files on the Kindle Keyboard, I get annoying margins and that progress bar taking a big part of the screen and messing with the image. So I prefer using image folders.

Is it better on the Paperwhite? Can I easily convert any comic on Calibre, and when reading, can they take up the whole screen? I'm not interested on the Panel View function, just on reading flawlessly.
