La Jeunesse de Blueberry (Young Blueberry) was an offshoot of the main Blueberry series. This prequel series was serialized in a black and white digest-sized publication before being collected into three color volumes. This edition includes pages and panels omitted from the French reprints.

Giraud created his La Jeunesse art with the smaller digest size format specifically in mind, and adopted therefore a more loose, less "convoluted" art style which allowed him to create his pages more quickly. Additionally, it was for these stories that he started to experiment with applying inks in pen -- alongside the brush he had hitherto exclusively employed for the series -- a technique he would perfect later on as "Mœbius". While the resulting spontaneous art worked out fine for the smaller sized pages of Superpocket Pilote, it did suffer from the enlargement for the album releases, when compared to the larger, more detailed pages for the main series on which he concurrently continued to work.
