If file sizes are bothering you, you can unpack images from CBZ files, and resize them manually with batch editing program, then zip them and change zip to cbz. They may be in PNG format, so you can save a lot of space by just converting them into JPEG. It's usually beneficial if they're a bit higher resolution than your screen if you wish to zoom in or use panel view. Zoom is a bit awkward in Koreader, but its panel view usually works well. If you're not using either, then you can safely downsize all images to exact resolution of your screen.

Other than that, just put CBZ files into your reader, and Koreader will know what to do with them. Imho, it's by far the simplest process, and a major reason for using Koreader over native reader.
