Philippe Bercovici is a French comics artist of Franco-Belgian comics. Having illustrated a wide range of series, Bercovici is perhaps most known for Les Femmes en Blanc written by Cauvin, started in 1981.

Known for working at unusually high speeds, in 1999 Bercovici illustrated an entire issue of Spirou on his own, imitating the styles of the other regular artists, including the continuing stories. Bercovici has also drawn the 2010 satire album Robert Parker: Les Sept P�ch�s capiteux, written by Benoist Simmat concerning American wine critic Robert M. Parker, Jr.
