I'm not sure what you are doing. Are you saying that converting a comic to epub using calibre gives a different result than Kindle Comic Converter? Or are you converting something the KCC produced? Or something else?

From memory KCC resizes images to match the screen size of the device you said you were using. A calibre conversion might downsize an image according to the profile, but it will not upsize an image. And the formatting of the epub produced by both is different. That could make another difference.

I'm pretty sure that chapter for converted comic books are generated in different ways by KCC and calibre. I can't tell you the differences as I don't really use either.

If we are talking about CBR or CBZ as the source, is there a reason you are not just putting these onto the device? Kobo ereader handle both formats and will allow zooming on the images in the comics. They won't have chapters, but it will remember were you are.
