Yes, we know: Boo-hoo-hoo, the
much-loved STAPLE! expo has been 86'd, maybe for good. But hold on, Fearless Front-Facer, because here comes A-SPLASH, the first Austin Small Press and Local Creator Show – ready to rock (as it were) the Sidekick Events Center of Austin Books & Comics. Meet some of Austin's burgeoning comic book community, ask questions about their work (example: How does one actually, you know,
burgeon?), and purchase their comics and other creations. Who's gonna be there? Evan Narcisse! Drew Edwards! Kristin Hogan! Matt Frank! Lilah Sturges! Yehudi Mercado! Monica Gallagher! And many more. With, the idea is,
you among them.
