I've heard that Comicpress is great for webcomics...you might want to consider reading up on it and getting it, and using that as an alternative to hand-coding the site in HTML.
HTML on its own is really not adequate for a comic site. Imagine a day's update - first, you upload the page of the new comic, and make sure it links to the previous comic page. Then you make sure that the previous comic page links to it correctly. Then you replace the current index page with a the new comic page.
It's needless hassle, especially when there are services like Comicpress (mentioned above) that make it super easy to make it look professional and even easier to update. All you need is somewhere you can install Wordpress and themes/extensions.

If you have no experience of coding this won't be too easy, but HTML and CSS are fairly straightforward and if you persevere you'll grasp it pretty quickly. Go through that tutorial and build what it wants you to (even if it seems irrelevant to your problem). Once you have a grasp of how it all fits together, you'll want to find the bit of code that denotes where to find the back/forward images, etc. Then you replace those links with images you create and host yourself. The background image should be much easier to find (and is likely one of the first things taught in that tutorial).
However, for the future, I cannot recommend moving away from Drunk Duck enough if you have the money for a domain and hosting - it's cheapr than you think. As a community, DD is filled with poor comics and yours will be guilty by association, not to mention the hideous banner at the top of your comic page.

Like on the first and previous button, I would like images of characters with it.
A image that is also a link, for a character bio.
Also would like some victorian patterns in the background.
I'm working with drunk duck here.
