10 Panel Comic - Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson. Calvin is a young boy often in a striped shirt. He has an imaginary tiger friend named Hobbes. When Calvin is alone Hobbes is a tiger who stands on his hind feet and talks only to Calvin. Others see Hobbes as a stuffed tiger toy that Calvin carries with him. This particular strip on this date was in full color.
Panel 1: A pink, purple and blue barren rocky terrain is under the words "Calvin and Hobbes" in yellow. There is a yellow space space that is shaped like an airplane approaching the planet.
Panel 2: Calvin is dressed like Spaceman Spiff who has a futuristic body suit with round sleeves and a rectangle pair of glasses on. His eyes look to be a single line. He is holding onto a space blaster. At top it says "Our hero, the valiant spaceman Spiff, is marooned on a strange world..." Spiff says "I'll set my mertilizer on "deep fat fry".
Panel 3: Miss Wormwood, Calvin's teacher is holding a pointing stick over one shoulder, dressed in a green dress with yellow spots, as she stands before Calvin's school desk. Calvin's head is turned and he is leaning on his hands. He has a far off look with a smile on his face as he is day dreaming. Miss Wormwood says "Calvin! You're not paying attention!"
Panel 4: Spiff is hiding behind a purple rock and behind him is a green with yellow spots alien with a pig snout nose on the other side of the rock. The alien is growling and making "Gronk! Argh!" sounds. At the top it says "... We join Spaceman Spiff on the distant planet Zorg". Spaceman Spiff holds onto the rock with his back to it says "Zounds!"
Panel 5: At the top it says "Trapped by a hideous Graknil, Spiff draws his trusty atomic napalm neutralizer!" Spiff clenches his teeth as he brings both hands together to hold his space blaster. A red ray comes from it as Spiff says "Chew electric death, Snarling Cur!"
Panel 6: At the top, it says "But the weapon is useless! Spiff is doomed!" The green and yellow alien's mouth is closed with a black char mark where it had been. Spiff looks a bit surprised.
Panel 7: At the top, it says "Our hero makes a break, and ducks into a nearby cave!" Spiff is running across the pink planet's surface toward a cave.
Panel 8: It is pitch black and only the two yellow squares of Spiff's eyes are visible. He says "Weeooo! What's that awful smell?"
Panel 9: Spiff is surprised as the lights turn on and he is surrounded by aliens. There are two large ooze types on the left that are shades of orange. One has a long neck and looks like a giraffe with one large eye in the center of its face. And the one on the right has a long nose like an anteater, but yellow. Spiff shouts "Eep!"
Panel 10: Calvin is shown running down the hall of his school having just slammed the door Teacher's lounge. From inside the lounge are two voices. One asks "Who was that?" and the other replies "Beats me, Fred."

4 Panel Comic - Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson. Calvin is a young boy often in a striped shirt. He has an imaginary tiger friend named Hobbes. When Calvin is alone Hobbes is a tiger who stands on his hind feet and talks only to Calvin. Others see Hobbes as a stuffed tiger toy that Calvin carries with him.
Panel 1: Miss Wormwood, Calvin's teacher, is standing before Calvin at his desk. She is an older woman, with glasses and is dressed in a dress with large round circles on it. She has a long stick in her hand, possibly a yardstick, and is waving it. She says "We'll see what the principal has to say about your attention span, young man!"
Panel 2: Miss Wormwood has changed into a large alien that looks a bit like a toad with large round circles on its skin. It is holding a long pointy spear at Calvin, who now appears as "Spaceman Spiff." He is wearing large rectangular dark sunglasses, his mouth is gagged and he is tied up with a rope around his torso, but he can still walk. He says "The valiant Spaceman Spiff has been captured!"
Panel 3: Spaceman Spiff is ungagged and is standing before a desk with another frog like alien behind it with long tentacle arms that are striped. Spiff says "The aliens doubtlessly want the secret formula to the atomic napalm neutralizer! Moments from the torture chamber, Spiff springs into action!"
Panel 4: The alien behind the desk is revealed to be Calvin's principal, a balding man with black frame glasses. Calvin is standing in the middle of the office with the principal's desk to the left and Miss Wormwood behind him to the right. He is shoving something into his mouth. Calvin's principal says "Why is he eating his hall pass?"
