Colorful Comic Kaleidoscope
WHAT WILL YOU MAKE?
Make a kaleidoscope to bathe a black and white Spider-Man comic in colorful light. Ordinary kaleidoscopes need ambient light to work: you view it by pointing it toward a light source. This one has built-in illumination so you can hold it right up against a printed page. The special RGB LED has a color-changing feature that continuously cycles through a rainbow of colors, making viewing black and white comics a trippy treat!
