The new iPhone launches today.  I would not want to be at an Apple or AT&T store, and I got a text from AT&T yesterday morning warning of possible service outages today.  I think they're terrific devices, but not yet terrific enough that I want one.

Comics this week:
The Dark Tower: The Long Road Home #5 (of 5):  Disappointing ending to the story.  It's another case of me not knowing what I expected, but this certainly wasn't it, I think.  Another series is planned for September, and I expect I'll get sucked into that one, too.
Invincible Iron Man #3:  Matt Fraction, for whatever other sins he might have committed, knows how to write IM.
Iron Man: Legacy of Doom #4 (of 4):  The post-Armor Wars red-and-gold suit merged with Excalibur's scabbard!  Doctor Doom!  A giant demon-thing made entirely of eyeballs and optic nerves!  This was great fun.
Justice Society of America #17:  More with Gog.  The JLA shows up.  Mister Terrific faces his disbelief.  I love this series so much.

34 days until GenCon.

I just checked out Legacy of Doom #1. I'm always a little iffy about stories told entirely in flashback, but this doesn't seem too bad. The interaction between Stark and Doom certainly made up for it and then some.

I loved the previous IM-&-Doom-in-Camelot stories; this one's a good wrap-up to the inadvertent trilogy. And I'd forgotten how good-looking that particular suit of armor was.

Before I forget (again) here's something I've been meaning to point you to for a while now...

Ironman by Mark Brooks (this piece only appeared at HeroesCon in NC.

Sharp! I like the deployed airfoils on the back.

Check out the rest of his work on DeviantArt, too. He's penned a few comic covers and has some pretty good stuff up there.
