“This is such a great little minicomic!” — Karen Green, Columbia University’s Rare Book & Manuscript Library

“Meyer’s art again has that clarity that we have come to expect from her. combining slice-of-life scenes, visual metaphor, and something approaching infographics to put forward her case with subtlety and nuance. The Ballad of Betty Rizzo: An Abortion Story doesn’t use angry rhetoric to make its point. It doesn’t need to. Its quietly unarguable truths are self-evident and unassailable.” — Andy Oliver, Broken Frontier

The U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade in 2022, limiting reproductive health care for many Americans. This is one woman’s story about abortion and gender stereotypes.
