The only issue I have with using all three panels is that it may be the whole strip. Maybe "Well, he did ask where his glasses were." as a caption? That would eliminate the need for the first panel.

There's another panel where Calvin walks in with the glasses.

That said, I still say two panels. Those are cliche dad-y lines, those are NOT a little boy's set of glasses, and the description is comically short. Three panels will utterly dwarf the description, which I don't like.

Yep. It's a four-panel strip. The second one is a beat panel of Calvin walking in with the glasses on and both parents staring at him blankly.

Incidentally, that was a quick-and-dirty rearrangement to see how it would look. That;s why the first and last panels aren't as sharp as the second — they're the ones I copied and moved. So if someone else wants to clean it up, go for it.

We have enough room for this to be two panels wide. It's a shame we can't use the whole thing, because this would really work as a 2x2.

I say use that, if only for being concise.

I can live with that arrangement. I think adding the first panel makes it a hair stronger, but not enough to override the benefit of having it 2-horizontally rather than 3-vertically.

30 is good. Thoughts on my caption suggestion?

I think the last two panels of C&H would work nicely, no caption necessary.
