Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

They weren't written nor intended to be a trilogy with any continuity but some marketing guys later glued them together in that fashion with the popular "Man with No Name" fanfiction about his three different names being fake because he's a bounty hunter. Most people like to look at them as a reverse story, with TGTBATU as the first, since he gets his poncho at the end and is generally a nicer character who then gets more ruthless as we go through the movies.

I've never thought about them like that, but it's a really good point. I'll have to try them in reverse order the next time I watch them!

Also they were written in satire of westerns.. and became some of the best westerns but they sort of were made to… mock westerns
