Pin-Up

Yann and Philippe Berthet’s Pin-Up is a long-running Franco-Belgian series from Dargaud Benelux that began in 1994 and blends wartime adventure with a noir-tinged, glamorous aesthetic. Spanning ten issues, the series follows the exploits of a group of American nurses and pilots stationed in the Pacific during World War II, with Berthet’s sleek, expressive art and Yann’s sharp scripting grounding the action in both period detail and human drama. It stands out for its stylish take on a classic genre, balancing pulp thrills with a knowing, character-driven sensibility that has kept it in print for decades.
