File:Kale1-5.jpg|from issue #1, for the story, The Contest, the artist is Rudas -- "This lovely portrayal of a naked Kirk and Spock engaged in passionate activity on the floor next to a formally made up bed reveals both urgency and sensuality. I'm not normally fond of long-haired Kirks, but Rudas has his long curls spilling around his head like sun rays. The details of the scene are also well-rended - the pillows behind Kirk and Spock, the tray with drinks and bowl of fruit and the fronds of the plant in the corner. K/S artists rarely show us an entire scene. I would like to see more of this kind of artwork in K/S zines." from Come Together #2

File:Kaleidoscope1art.jpg|v issue #1, DEW is the artist, for the story Altered Views -- "Would "fantastic" do for an adjective here? Wow! Is it possible that anyone has ever looked this good? Never mind. As far as I'm concerned, DEW can keep turning out nude Kirks until the day I die. Super!" from Come Together #3 
File:Kale1-7.jpg|from issue #1, artist is Deeb -- "I rarely comment on art, but I especially liked Deeb's picture on p.209. It conveys a gently loving message." from The LOC Connection #59 (1993)
