Royals Rumblings - News for May 1, 2021 Share this story Alec Lewis held a Q and A yesterday with readers.

Welcome to This Week in Genre History, where Tim Grierson and Will Leitch, the hosts of the Grierson & Leitch podcast, take turns looking back at the world's greatest, craziest, most infamous genre movies on the week that they were first released. You and I can't be superheroes for a very good reason: We don't have powers.

Unless you're Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne and have a ton of money, it's probably best that we mere mortals leave the crime-fighting to ...
