Outlaw Nation is an American comic book series originally published by Vertigo Comics from 2000 to 2002.[1] The nineteen issues series was created by Jamie Delano and Goran Sudzuka, about a family with extremely long lifespans.
In an interview about the comic Delano stated that it was "my shot at a big, sprawling 'American Adventure Story' played on that classic widescreen theater of extremes, the territory of the imagination represented to me, a non-native outsider, by the North American continent and its culture.
