More than 60 female comics creators share their personal
experiences with sexual violence and harassment through new and original
comics

Inspired by the global #MeToo Movement, Drawing Power: Women´s Stories of Sexual Violence, Harassment, and Survival is
a collection of original, nonfiction comics drawn by more than 60
female cartoonists from around the world. Featuring such noted creators
as Emil Ferris, Aline Kominsky-Crumb, MariNaomi, Liana Finck, and Ebony
Flowers the anthology´s contributors comprise a diverse group of many
ages, sexual orientations, and races-and their personal stories convey
the wide spectrum of sexual harassment and abuse that is still all too
commonplace. With a percentage of profits going to RAINN, Drawing Power is an anthology that stokes the fires of progressive social upheaval, in the fight for a better, safer world.
"Their stories are both demoralizing and powerfully inspirational, as these women use art to reclaim individual power and dignity, and to challenge a culture of pervasive sexual predation." The Fanatic, Publishers Weekly
