Sci-fi in soviet era. Part one

Hello people! I'm sorry I haven't been in touch for a while but now it'll chage.

So, as you may know I live in Lithuania, a post-soviet country. I had found some old soviet magazines (they  called "Švyturys" or "Lighthouse" in English... It was named like that because of soviet ideology about the lighthouse which would guide people to beter soviet life... yep, an utopian thing) and I was a bit surprised when I saw sci-fi comics on the last page of magazine (JACKPOT hahaha xD). I really liked them, but Soviet wouldn't be Soviet... those comics are weird and unclear. :D
So, I'll post what I found and I'll write the  EXACT translations of them (cuz Lithuanian artist drew them) ;D


The first one:
