Well, I am pretty sure that the cover thumbnail is handled by the Amazon firmware.
And the screen saver image(s) are handled by the ss add-in.
It is certainly possible that one of those can accept something that the other one can not.

I don't know the ss add-in well enough to suggest anything else.
(Well, other than using the 'free' command or the 'swapon -s' command after trying to open the big file, to see is swap had actually been used. There should be examples of those commands in that post.)
Okay thanks! Maybe someone else will be able to provide some information on either the ScreenSaver Hack or the comic converter.

After setting up the swap, when I checked to to if it had been used, some of it was filled up. However, I forgot whether I browsed another ebook or not (instead of just the large 300mb comic), so I rebooted. I turned swap "on" after reboot, and after typing the "free" command, I saw that 0/16mb were being used in the swap (as expected I think). However, after opening and browsing through the comic it still stays 0/16mb of the swap are used. No matter what ebook I browse, it still won't fill up. Any ideas?

Note: I am using kTerm, so I'm not sure if exiting out of the ebook empties the swap or something.
