2. The Crimean Peninsula juts into what sea?
3. “The Dark Knight” was the working title of a 1986 movie that had nothing to do with Batman. It was a box office failure, but eventually it received four sequels, three TV adaptations, and one anime spin-off, making its catchphrase as ironic as it is iconic. Name that franchise.
4. The Pulitzer-winning novel “All the King’s Men” is a fictionalized account of the rise and eventual assassination of Huey P. Long, the real-life governor of which Southern state?
5. The U.S. Postal Service launched the RFD program in 1896 to provide service at no charge to postal clients who lived beyond the limits of urban mail routes. What did “RFD” stand for?
