About the series
Published from 2006 to 2008 as a three-issue Prestige series, Slum Nation is a gritty, self-contained urban saga from an era of mature-reader comics. Most closely associated with its creative team, the series explores the raw underbelly of a city through its interconnected characters and stark social commentary. Despite its brief run, it stands as a compact, potent example of the kind of visceral, character-driven storytelling that defined early 2000s independent comics.
