The Smurfs (comics)

The Smurfs are a Belgian comic series, created by Peyo. The fictional characters of the Smurfs first appeared in "Johan and Peewit" in 1958, and the first independent Smurf comics appeared in 1959. , 26 Smurf comics have been created, 16 of them by Peyo. Originally, the Smurf stories appeared in "Spirou magazine" with reprints in many different magazines, but after Peyo left the publisher Dupuis, many comics were first published in dedicated Smurf magazines, which existed in French, Dutch and German. A number of short stories and one page gags have been collected in comic books next to the regular series of 26.

History

In 1952, Peyo (original name Pierre Culliford) created a Franco-Belgian comics series in "Le Journal de Spirou" titled "Johan et Pirlouit" (translated to English as "Johan and Peewit"), set in Europe during the Middle Ages. Johan serves as a brave young page to the king, and Pirlouit (pronounced Peer-loo-ee) functions as his faithful, if boastful and cheating, midget sidekick.

On October 23, 1958, Peyo introduced a new set of characters to the "Johan et Pirlouit" story "La flûte à six trous".Cite web|last=BDoubliées|title=Spirou année 1958|url=http://bdoubliees.com/journalspirou/annees/1958.htm|language=French] This alone caused no great excitement, as the brave duo constantly encountered strange new people and places. This time, they had the mission of recovering a magic flute, which required some sorcery by the wizard Homnibus. And in this manner, they met a tiny, blue-skinned humanoid creature in white clothing called a "Schtroumpf", followed by his numerous peers who looked just like him, with an elderly leader who wore red clothing and had a white beard. The characters proved to be a huge success, and the first independent Smurf stories appeared in "Spirou" in 1959, together with the first merchandising.
