There is way more than that.

If you use "phase portrait visualization tool" (e.g. from here 
http://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/User:Andrew_Nikitin/Phase_portraits ) on a, say, 
10x10 square:

viewrgb ccEnhPh f 5*sq 128

you will see a root near 3j4.53, near 3.43j1.72 and much more all intertwined 
with poles and getting denser and denser along 2 curves parallel to the real 
axis.
And since exp(z) is periodic, same picture is repeated with period 0 j. 2p1%^.2

Here is interesting piece of trivia: image of almost any straight line under 
exp(exp(z)) is dense in C  so the behavior of anything with exp(exp(z)) in it 
(and 2^2^z is pretty much same thing as exp(exp(z))) becomes weird fast.
