OT - Late 60's era science fiction comic book series

Does anyone remember the name of a science fiction comic book series,
published in the late 60's and perhaps the early 70's, that featured a
"nuclear family" of Dad, Mom, and teenage brother and sister
traveling through space in a large H-shaped spacecraft?
The spacecraft was roughly 10 stories tall. The center horizontal
portion of the vehicle was topped by a large dome-shaped transparency
equipped with a large telescope. I vaguely remember that magnetism had
a major role in vehicle propulsion. Its primary mission was research
and I am not sure I remember it having any armament at all.
I also seem to recall that each of the vertical portions of the
H-shaped vehicle were topped with a transparent material and that these
areas were used as green houses. The lower portion of a least one of
these vertical components had two hangers for space shuttles that
featured large transparencies under which there were bucket seats for 4
- 6 passengers. Generally, the shuttles seemed to be for the teenagers
to go out, away from the strictures of adult supervision, and find new
ways to get in trouble.
At this point, the memory fades. . . . And I cannot remember anything
else. Does this ring any bells for anyone?
Thanks in advance.
John
