Those appear to be fixed-layout books. That format is generally unsupported by Amazon's Kindle Previewer so a failure to convert is not surprising. Amazon's tool for handling fixed-layout books is Kindle Create. It is a manual process. There is a bit of information about using its output with this plugin to produce KFX in the Converting Comics and Manga section of the first post in this thread, however it is probably not worth the effort to do that.

Calibre does not support fixed-layout books. How they display using it is hit or miss.
Send to Kindle works differently from the Kindle Previewer and is likely the best way to get those books on to a Kindle.

No problem. This is the right place for your question.
