About the series
In the late 1990s, Dargaud published La Jeunesse de Barbe-Rouge, a five-issue prequel series that explores the early adventures of the legendary pirate Redbeard. Written by Jean-Michel Charlier and illustrated by Victor Hubinon, this series expands the beloved Barbe-Rouge universe by delving into the formative years of its iconic protagonist. It matters as a key addition to the classic Franco-Belgian adventure canon, offering fans a deeper look at the character's origins without straying from the swashbuckling tone of the original run.
