Smurfs

The Smurfs (Les Schtroumpfs) are a fictional group of small, sky-blue creatures that live in Smurf Village somewhere in the woods. Belgian cartoonist Peyo introduced Smurfs to the world in a series of comic strips, making their first appearance in the Belgian magazine Le Journal de Spirou on October 23, 1958. The English-speaking world perhaps knows them best through the popular 1980s The Smurfs animated television series from Hanna-Barbera Productions, as well as the 2011 and 2013 animated movies
