April 23 kicks off National Infertility Awareness Week. For many people, having kids seems like a natural and simple process, but that’s not the reality for millions of people. National Infertility Awareness Week attempts to bring that reality more to the forefront, to education all of us about the topic. Ahead of that week, Humanoids has published “In Vitro,” a graphic novel by William Roy (“Hedy Lamarr: An Incredible Life”), and we’ve got an exclusive look at the book.

Written and illustrated by William Roy

Guillaume and Emma are newlyweds. Their life together is full of love and happiness, and they have everything they’ve always wanted… well, almost everything.

From unsuccessful attempts to repeated failures, the two newlyweds face a menacing foe: sterility.
Together, they embark on the confusing journey that is in vitro fertilization. Guillaume experiences the daily embarrassment of sperm donations, tests with dreaded results and endless consultations.

With self-effacing charm, William Roy humbly shares a deeply human experience that is propelled by unshakable hope.

Thanks to Humanoids for the preview, and make sure to pick up the book! Stay safe, everyone.
