Clint,
No, it would be best to not merge it in. There are
some comics out there where each panel is rendered as
its own image file, and for those, it's nice to have
the panels build up side-by-side. I don't know which
comics did that (it's been a few years) or even if they
still do it today.
You could make it a configurable option, but the best
design would be for each specific comic to have an
attribute that specifies if multiple images should
be in separate rows when rendered on screen. Feel
free to take that on, but without looking at the code
(again it's been a while), I'm guessing it's not
designed to facilitate meta-data like that to be
passed into the theme, let alone the HTML page
generator.
