From 1979-1983 the Los Angeles Times Syndicate published a Star Trek daily comic strip. It ran in black and white during the week, and full color on Sundays.
Stories were based on the crew of the USS Enterprise, right after the events in Star Trek: The Motion Picture; which meant that Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and the rest of the crew all paraded around in those funny pajama uniforms. Later in 1982, when Wrath of Khan was released. the uniforms were updated without explanation. There are two great sites you can check for more information: Memory Alpha has an extensive page on the writers and artists who contributed to the strip (including Larry Niven)
