composite is a very old bais command, that will only compose two (2)
images together.  That is ALL.

To compose multiple images together see  -flatten....
   http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/mosaics/#flatten

Lots of other things on that page too that may be relevent.


Without more detail however that is all I can provide you.
