In Dance

This comic was set into motion, after the SCOTUS leak, when guest editor Rowena Richie sent Dana this quotation from Sima Belmar: “Miscarriage, abortion, fertility treatments, birth, motherhood, losing a child–we dance through all these experiences.” Presented as a two-page spread that resembles a board game—a combination of chess, with alternating black and white squares, and a choose your own adventure map— with arrows that direct the reader down or across from a given square.
