You can use something like HTTrack to download a site. Or starting from a URL all linked pages. That gives you HTML pages and the images that could be added to calibre and converted to epub. wget is another example of this.

There are also more specialised solutions. For example, if you read fan fiction, then something like FanFictionDownloader or the calibre plugin is what you want. For Wiki type pages, there are some calibre plugins that do it very nicely.

Calibre also has a large number of recipes for downloading news pages and conversion to epub or other formats.
Thanks a lot. I will try them all. I have been staying aloof from Calibre because it seemed slow. Will check its news recipes.
