Read More » Reckless: Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips’ Pulp Graphic Novel Series It’s like reading a good old pulp novel, but with Brubaker’s writing, Sean Phillips’s pencils, and Jacob Phillips’s colors, the result could almost qualify as a reinvention of the genre by the form-published by Image Comics. Each story is self-contained and collected in one 144-page hardcover graphic novel.
It is a new crime series, for sure, but the creative team decided to try a different publication approach. Everything they try is basically a winner.
With the award-winning Pulp, the duo confirmed that they don’t even need to connect their work to Criminal anymore-like with My Heroes Have Always Been Junkies-or to another series to find their audiences in a different format. If you talk about the genre, you irremediably think about Criminal, then comes other favorites like The Fade Out, Kill or be Killed, Fatale… At this point, when it comes to crime comics, Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips’s comics have eclipsed David Lapham’s ( Stray Bullets).
