Greetings True Believers, This issue's opening scene is set in an undisclosed and unassuming location which serves as the secret hideout for one of the most feared, yet most respected super-villians... the man known only as Doom. "Known" in this case is extremely vague at best. For who truly knows what lurks behind those eyes which pierce thru from beneath that metal face? Yes, another masked man. The history of the masked man is as uncertain as it is legendary. The legacy of Doom is no different. What purpose does the mask serve; does it hide the otherwise visable scars of pain? is it an escape from wrong doings of the past? or does its presence mark the setting of conquest for the future?
