Seems like they would have to have a dynamic link on their end that they could give out for people like you who want to show their comic.

There are lots of sites that offer dynamic content, and I am sure it can be done, but from my limited knowledge I think it would have to be through them.

It's a good idea since they want to be promoted like that. If you can find info on it you might present them with the info and hopefully they can implement it.
