Why not use the orbiters around Mars to do simultaneous observations 
with Hubble or ground based telescopes. That could create a large 
baseline for a possible tomographic imaging and a reconstructed 
3-dimensional model of the comet.
At least they should have a lot better view than the rowers have, as 
someone suggested before.

I don't know if that is possible with the satellites orbiting Mars, but 
it would be an interesting experiment.

... and not to forget Dawn, my favorite spacecraft. I guess they have 
packed a good resolution camera on that spacecraft.

Come to think of it, there are a number of probes out there, deep impact 
for instance. It has a good telescope and between jobs currently.

In the while I'll try to finally catch the comet tonight, it's been 
cloudy and raining here in Sweden but now it's clearing up.
