1. A slightly weak but interesting one all the same.

"bah humbug" is a phrase which was often used by Ebenezer Scrooge, the protoganist in the Charles Dicken's novel A christmas carol.

Through the looking glass is ofcourse the sequel to Alice in wonderland written by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson more popularly known to us by his pseudonym Lewis Carroll.

Pope John Paul II the second's real name was Karol Józef Wojtyla.

The connection of course is the name 'Carol'.

2.Wolverine

Mahindra and Mahindra in association with Renault had recently launched The Logan.Now if u r familiar with marvel comics ,the name Logan first brings to mind the X-men hero Wolverine.Born James Howlett,Wolverine is one of the Xmen ,guys with the x gene in them which gives them special abilities.A mutant, Wolverine possesses animal-keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities, and a healing factor that allows him to recover from virtually any wound. The near unbreakable metal alloy adamantium bonded to his skeletal system gives him his razor-sharp retractable claws.He is portrayed on screen by the actor Hughe Jackman in the 'X-men" films .the first 2 of which were directed by Brian Singer.

3.Spiderman

The amazing Fantasy #15 ,1962 issue gave us the comic super hero Spiderman.

Created by Stan Lee the amazing webslinger had the alter ego Peter PArker who worked as a press photographer at the 'Daily Bugle' newspaper which had Joseph 'Robbie' Robertson as the Editor in Chief.Among his many deadly supervillains 'Venom' would rank as one ofthe most dangerous.Initially a parasitic alien life form ,venom infects Edward 'Eddie' Brock a fellow press photographer and rival to Peter Parker and becomes the supervillian.

4.Tin tin.

Pablo is a character from The Adventures of Tintin series of classic comic books written and drawn by Hergé. He is a native of the fictional country of San Theodoros and lives in the capital Los Dopicos.Tin Tin's dog snowy is called Milou in the french version and Struppi in the german version.The first Tin Tin comics appeared in Le Petit vingtième, the weekly children's supplement to Le Vingtième siècle newspaper while Herge was its editor.Charles de Gaulle once famously said "Actually, you know, my only international rival is Tintin. We are the little fellows who refuse to be had by the big fellows. People don't notice the resemblance because of my stature."

5.The Battle of Thermopylae pass.

A personal favourite.In the Battle of Thermopylae of 480 BC, an alliance of Greek city-states fought the invading Persian Empire at the pass of Thermopylae in central Greece. Vastly outnumbered, the Greeks held back the Persians for three days in one of history's most famous last stands.Thermopylae means "hot gateway" in greek.Ephialtes was the local who betrayed the greeks by helping the persians penetrate the pass.around 1300 greeks of which about 300 were spartan warriors fought against King Xerxes' 1/2 a million men.The Spartans assembled at full strength a year later and led a pan-Greek army that defeated the Persians decisively at the Battle of Plataea, ending the Greco-Persian War and with it the expansion of the Persian Empire into Europe.

The film 300 is based on this historic stand off.

6. This one has some magic in it.
