Comics have come a long ways since the early days of Marvel and Detective Comics, but though tone, genres and superheroes in some cases have changed, one thing remains remarkably the same: the basic prototype format for laying out page.

Shivaji
was born on February 19, 1630 at Shivneri fort, Junnar, about 60
kilometers north of Pune. His mother Jijabai named him Shiva after the
Goddess Shivai. At this time the major players in the Deccan were the
Nizamshahs of Ahmednagar, Mughals of Delhi and the Adilshah of Bijapur. Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor
attacked Nizamshah. Nizamshah was defeated and the war weakened the
Ahmednagar kingdom. Shahaji tried to raise the banner of his
independence but was crushed by the combined forces of Mughals and
Adilshahi. After the defeat, he was inducted into the Adilshahi and was
allowed to keep his old land tenures around Pune. Shivaji was born
during these turbulent times. At the age of 17, Shivaji carried his
first attack on Bijapur and captured the Torana fort in 1645. By 1647,
he captured Rajgadh and Kondana forts and had complete control of Pune
region. Of all his exploits my favorite has always been the Battle of
Pratapgadh when he defeated and killed Afzal Khan. Read More...

Let’s have a look at twenty logos — ranging from simply “big” brands to ubiquitous companies — that have some hidden cleverness for the observant eye. click here....
