Help styling ComicPress.

I know Comicpress has a support forum, but I want to get more input in case it takes a while for them to answer.

For those familiar with the theme, I’m using 3vc. I’m very new to wordpress and I just started, my knowledge of html/css is also quite limited 🙁 (The first question I hope can be answered without any comicpress knowledge).

1. How do I go about making the settings for the right/left side so that a one-sided border is created. For example, the right column, can I create a border that only appears on the left side (and not top/bottom/right) so that it separates the column from the center of the page (and vice versa with the left column).

2. I did not mess with the side-right bar in the css (I don’t believe), but when you go to the comic viewing by (first/prev/next) the right column goes outside the page and to the bottom left, is there a way to fix this?

3. Lastly, is there a way I can move the First/Prev to the top of the comic along with the date? I managed to move the date to the top but cut/pasting the date code to near the top of the main index.php, but when I tried the first/prev, only the “first” appeared (and this completely failed when I tried editing the single.php).
