    I like them all, but my order of preference for the three would be the order you listed them:

    Criminal

    then Pulp

    then Kill or Be Killed

    but since Pulp is standalone a read, you could start with that before diving into one of the longer series.

    Pulp is one graphic novel.

    Kill or Be Killed is an ongoing story told over 24 issues/4 volumes of story.

    Criminal is an series of graphic novels that is an ongoing anthology. Essentially it's like a shared universe. Most of the graphic novels are singular stories that can be read separately.

    I bought Kill or Be Killed and Criminal when Comixology was having a Image comic sale. So I got them for a massive discount.

    Jekyll, I would recommend starting with Pulp. Mostly because it is short and you can fly through that pretty quickly but it is also really good. After that, you should totally dive into Criminal.

    I picked up "Scene of the Crime". I'm enjoying it alot so if Mr. Brubaker and Mr. Phillips wants to do anymore....I'm game for it.

    The back matter is pretty great.

    Picked up the copy my lcs had pulled for me this afternoon. Hoping to be able to sit down and read it tomorrow (no Sox game to watch now that they bowed out of the playoffs).

    Nice interview with Brubaker in The Hollywood Reporter - https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/mo...el-1235034966/

    And here is an interesting moment from the interview. Brubaker on what could be coming up in the future.

    Q: How far will Reckless go beyond book three?

    B: We were going to do the first three and take a break and do the other books and come back and do two or three more of the Reckless books, but when [Robert] Kirkman read the first book, he was like, “Why are you only doing three?” and I’m like, “We’re not stopping at three. I have an idea for a sequel to The Fade Out that I want to do. And I have this other slightly longer stand-alone graphic novel idea I want to do. And then after those we’ll come back and do more.” Kirkman was like, “No! I want to see more of these guys. You’ve got to do at least five before you take a break.” So I was like, “All right, fine, just for you. We’ll do five.” Now I’m halfway through four and I’m plotting through five. I should listen to Kirkman more. I’m glad he convinced me to do that.
