Mirror, Mirror

Wendi and I are working on an article on optics for a kids' magazine called Odyssey. We're MacGuyvering a homemade kaleidoscope out of a Pringles can, silver poster board, and transparency sheets, but we're also stacking mirrors at angles to demonstrate the optical principles we're using. When the time came to choose a toy to put in the center of our mirrors, I knew just the one . . .

Comics fans recognize this masked man immediately. He's Sam Scudder/Evan McCulloch, aka the Mirror Master!

I get a kick every time I look at these. Seeing Mirror Master reflected over and over again makes my fanboy heart feel warm and fuzzy!
