Too bad you can't have "books" of jpegs on the Reader to trigger this behavior (PDF's don't count, as the Reader doesn't draw the pages the same as Jpegs. haven't noticed this behavior with lrf's either). Though I don't think I'd really care for the double redraw when I flip pages, it would come in handy for details.
Edit: Continuing this thought... perhaps you could have pages of a comic numerically ordered and add them to a collection in the reader software, that way you could view the collection as a complete comic? To bad there isn't an easier way to create collections outside of using the Connect software... too slow.
