Whatever I posted, it wasn't the final recipe, as what you were working with still had lots of junk in it. This is closer to the final I came up with, but my earlier version had some text that identified the comic. You want it rotated, so I removed the text above to give more room for the comic.

Try this:

from calibre.web.feeds.news import BasicNewsRecipe
from calibre.ebooks.BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
import re
import calibre.utils.PythonMagickWand as pw
import calibre.utils.PythonMagickWand

class Explosm(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title               = 'Explosm'
    __author__          = 'Starson17'
    description         = 'Explosm'
    language            = 'en'
    use_embedded_content= False
    no_stylesheets      = True
    oldest_article      = 24
    remove_javascript   = True
    remove_empty_feeds    = True
    max_articles_per_feed = 10

    feeds = [
             (u'Explosm Feed', u'http://feeds.feedburner.com/Explosm')
             ]

    keep_only_tags     = [dict(name='div', attrs={'align':'center'})]
    remove_tags = [dict(name='span'),
                   dict(name='table')]

    def postprocess_html(self, soup, first):
        #process all the images. assumes that the new html has the correct path
        for tag in soup.findAll(lambda tag: tag.name.lower()=='img' and tag.has_key('src')):
            iurl = tag['src']
            print 'resizing image' + iurl
            with pw.ImageMagick():
                img = pw.NewMagickWand()
                p = pw.NewPixelWand()
                if img < 0:
                    raise RuntimeError('Out of memory')
                if not pw.MagickReadImage(img, iurl):
                    severity = pw.ExceptionType(0)
                    msg = pw.MagickGetException(img, byref(severity))
                    raise IOError('Failed to read image from: %s: %s'
                        %(iurl, msg))
                width = pw.MagickGetImageWidth(img)
                height = pw.MagickGetImageHeight(img)
                if( width > height ) :
                    print 'Rotate image'
                    pw.MagickRotateImage(img, p, 90)
                if not pw.MagickWriteImage(img, iurl):
                    raise RuntimeError('Failed to save image to %s'%iurl)
                pw.DestroyMagickWand(img)
        return soup
