Far away from here, in a land almost no human has ever seen, live the fantastically funny Smurfs! Only three-apples high, The Smurfs live in mushroom houses, eat sarsaparilla and cake, and speak their very own Smurfy language. But life in the village isn’t always fun and fancy-free, not with the villainous sorcerer Gargamel and his snarling cat Azrael nearby!
When the Belgian cartoonist Peyo created a village of cute little woodland creatures for his heroes Johan and Peewit to discover, he couldn't have known that they would wildly outgrow those humble origins to become a worldwide phenomenon all on their own. More than 50 years later, The Smurfs continue to delight us all with their silliness, bravery, heroism, and heart, and now we finally have a definitive collection of Peyo's original comics to see where it all began.
