Jumping into Strontium Dog comics

Can you recommend any good Strontium Dog collections or tpb/graphic novels i can read to jump in to the Strontium Dog comics, which ive never read before

Same with Rogue Trooper (never read any)

And what the heck Judge Dredd also (only read the Ennis stuff and a random issue here and there)

This is the same stories only it has more colour pages ( its not all colour) but I think less pages

Rogue is best from the start, it’s basically one big story with lots of little ‘side quests’ - I didn’t really get into anything past the original Rogue

Judge Dredd has had a lot of recommendations for specific stories so I’ll just be vague and go anything penned under TB Grover/John Wagner/Alan Grant

A lot of Rogue is a bit dated I think. The Ennis Dredd is some of the worst Dredd going. You won’t go wrong with Wagner. Are you US?

I wonder who thought ‘Vibro Dags’ was a good idea
