About the series
Originally serialized in Pilote magazine, this long-running Franco-Belgian series follows the daredevil exploits of two young fighter pilots in the French Air Force. Co-created by the legendary team of writer Jean-Michel Charlier and artist Albert Uderzo (later famed for Asterix), with later contributions from Hartmut Becker and Jijé, the series stands as a classic of aviation adventure. Published by Splitter in the 1987–1999 period, these 16 issues capture the Cold War-era thrill of jet-age camaraderie and aerial combat. It remains a beloved touchstone for fans of European adventure comics.
