Version 1: Self "programmed" EPUB as you guys advised me
Version 2): Comic created with the old(!) version of the Comic Creator (MOBI)
Regarding version 1:
-it works
-it has the margins on all the devices I own (Kindle App, Paperwhite) ... I mean ... if I double tap they disappear
-the listing on Amazon does not say with what devices it is compatible
Regarding Version 2:
-works just like the one of the example I once shared - but no panel view (I guess I didnt see that option)
-the listing states with what devices this is compatible
(snip list)
Now my question:
Is it correct to assume that the listing where it does not state with what devices it is compatible is with more devices compatible than the other one?
(in short: is it correct to conclude that version 1 is compatible with more devices than version 2)

Yes. Amazon's "compatible with..." listings
appear inclusive, but they are actually
exclusive.

Yes. Although the ComicCreator does have more "compatibility" than pretty much any other form of Fixed-layout. It's simply because it's much older. If you use the Comic Creator option of Kindle Create, for example, the compatibility list is much, MUCH shorter. I don't know why Amazon went in that direction; believe me, I wish that they had not.

Anyway ... I think I have a pretty good workflow with the single html files in Calibre in order to create the EPUB. And it is a good feeling to exactly know what is going on ...
Thank you!
