No matter how good at history you are, there will always be some interesting historical facts that you just never knew. It can be hard to uncover the real truth and the secret history of the past from old photos what with all the fake news and photo trickery going around at the moment. However, there’s one guy we can definitely trust.

Meet Agan Harahap – a talented mixed-media artist and graphic designer from Jakarta, Indonesia. He began his career as an illustrator and digital artist, he also tried his hand at photo editing but ended up working as a photographer for Trax Magazine (Indonesian based music magazine). Besides contributing to a number of magazines in Jakarta, he also managed to uncover the real heroes of the 20th century creating a collection of enhanced historical photos.

We proudly present Agan’s creative photoshop series “Super Heroes”! Scroll down the list and find out from these revealing photo manipulations who was actually behind all that happened in the 20th century. That’s right, superheroes and other pop culture characters were actually there all along. From iconic WW2 photos to other important moments in history, Agan shows us the “truth”. You may never see history the same way again after seeing these interesting photos with your very own eyes!

I may look like a cat, but deep down I'm a panda. Sometimes I'm lazy, sometimes I'm bored - I'm just like you, but a bit cooler.
