Review Quotes: "The comics in Drawing Power add a striking visual dimension to the #MeToo movement. Something about the very visibility of the perpetrators in these stories--all very different, yet all somehow the same-- brings home in a new way the extreme pervasiveness of sexual violence. By bearing witness quite literally to a wide range of traumatic incidents, the cartoonists in this book are changing not just the way we understand sexual assault, but the way we see it." -- "Alison Bechdel, author of Fun Home and Are You My Mother"
