The Smurfs
The Smurfs are a group of small sky blue creatures who live in Smurf Village somewhere in the woods. Incidentally, the Belgian cartoonist Peyo introduced Smurfs to the world in a series of comic strips, making their first appearance in the Belgian comics magazine Le Journal de Spirou on October 23, 1958. The English-speaking world perhaps knows them best through the popular 1980s animated television series from Hanna-Barbera Productions, "The Smurfs."
