The little blue bastards are older than I thought. Apparently they were created back in 1958:
The late cartoonist Pierre Culliford -- best known by his pen name, "Peyo" -- first introduced the tiny blue figures in a comic strip in October 1958. He called them Schtroumpf; they became known worldwide as the Smurfs.
I don't know about you, but back in the '80s I was hoping that Gargamel would roast a few of the annoying little fucks.
Anyways, here is a video to get you in a smurfy mood:
If that's not enough, look forward to the upcoming year's comic book releases, remastered versions of the television series, and even a 3D animated feature film.
