The 7th annual STAPLE!, the independent media expo, happens this Saturday and Sunday March 5-6 in Austin at the Marchesa Hall and Theater. This is one of my favorite events of the year. Reviewing last years event, I observed “a mish-mash of seemingly unrelated exhibitors, the 2010 STAPLE! abounded with odd delights.”

Rather than merely writing a review, I am actually involved with this years convention. On Saturday at 1 PM, I am moderating a panel discussion with Atomic Robo creators Scott Wegener and Brian Clevinger. (For more on Atomic Robo and his creators, check out my recent Nexus Graphica column.)

Additionally, I’ll have a home at the show as I’m helping Alan J. Porter sell his goodies (along with a few of my very own), so I’ll be at his table on and off all weekend long. I’m not sure exactly where it’ll be in the hall, but if you’re there, be sure to stop by and say “howdy.”

Hope to see everyone there!
