'''''The Smurfs''''' ({{langx|fr|Les Schtroumpfs}}; [[Dutch language|Dutch]]: ''De Smurfen'') is a Belgian comic series, created by cartoonist [[Peyo]] (pen name of Pierre Culliford). The titular creatures were introduced as supporting characters in an already established series, ''[[Johan and Peewit]]'' in 1958, and starred in their own series from 1959. More than forty ''Smurf'' [[comic album]]s have been created, 16 of them by Peyo. Originally, the ''Smurf'' stories appeared in ''[[Spirou (magazine)|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. By 2008, ''Smurf'' comics have been translated into 25 languages, and some 25 million albums have been sold.<ref>{{cite news |first=John |last=Lichfield |title=Smurfs celebrate their 50th birthday |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/smurfs-celebrate-their-50th-birthday-969506.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220618/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/smurfs-celebrate-their-50th-birthday-969506.html |archive-date=2022-06-18 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |work=The Independent |date=2008-10-23 |access-date=2008-10-23}}</ref>

==History==
In 1952, Peyo created a series in ''Spirou'' magazine titled ''Johan et Pirlouit'' (''[[Johan and Peewit]]''), set in [[Europe]] during the (probably) [[Middle Ages]]. Johan serves as a brave young page to the [[monarch|king]], and Pirlouit (pronounced Peer-loo-ee) functions as his faithful, if boastful and cheating, [[midget]] [[sidekick]].

On 23 October 1958, Peyo introduced a new set of characters to the ''Johan et Pirlouit'' story "{{lang|fr|La Flûte à six trous|italics=no}}" (tr. "The Flute with Six Holes").<ref name=BDO-s>{{cite web|last=BDoubliées|title=Spirou année 1958|url=http://bdoubliees.com/journalspirou/annees/1958.htm|language=fr}}</ref> 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 called ''Grand Schtroumpf" ([[Papa Smurf]])''. 
[[File:Johan et Pirlouit-extract album 9.png|thumb|285px|First appearance of Smurfs in ''The Flute with Six Holes'', the ninth album (1958) of the Johan and Peewit-series<ref>{{Cite web |date=22 June 2018 |title=60 ans des Schtroumpfs : la conquête planétaire des petits lutins belges |url=https://information.tv5monde.com/culture/60-ans-des-schtroumpfs-la-conquete-planetaire-des-petits-lutins-belges-29423 |website=/information.tv5monde.com |language=fr}}</ref>]]
Although intended to be secondary characters who were only to appear in the single episode, the characters proved to be a huge success, and the first independent [[spin-off (media)|spin-off]] Smurf stories appeared in ''Spirou'' in 1959, together with the first [[The Smurfs merchandising|merchandising]]. The short Smurf stories were published as mini books, where the story was printed on a large page and had to be folded and cut by the reader into a small book.<ref>''[http://www.bdoubliees.com/minirecit/index.html Les mini-récits de Spirou]'', "BDoubliées" {{in lang|fr}}</ref>

A few years later, the first adventures were redrawn with a graphic design that made the characters more graceful. The stories became longer and were republished in full in a hardback version.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2 August 2024 |title=Les Schtroumpfs noirs - 1959 |url=https://www.lastdodo.nl/nl/items/917183-les-schtroumpfs-noirs |website=lastdodo.nl |language=nl}}</ref>
