SMurf story time
>>
>>88840229
This was originally called The Black Smurfs, but was changed to the Purple Smurfs in the USA for... Obvious reasons.
>>
>>88840251
I've never actually read this comic so I'll be storytiming it with you guys. This also might be why this storytime might be slower then usual.
>>
>>88840275
Supposedly John Romero bases his Zombies from this story.
>>
>>88840301
Finally! The Actual Comic!
>>
>>88840332
Heh, I remember this art from various memes.
>>
>>88840315
Just so you all know, in the original French this was actually called "Le Pays Maudit" (The Cursed Country) not "Land of the Smurfs". It's for the best really, since later albums would drop the "cursed" thing and focus on the magical fairy land aspect.
>>
>>88840315
>>88840332
>>88840353
Fun fact: this Smurf would later become Grouchy Smurf.
>>
>>88840315
>>88840332
Man, the Smurfs really are commies.
>>
>>88840366
>Hey! You! Go see what Smurf is smurfing
It's funny, in the early albums, most Smurfs did not have their own names, they were literally just called "Smurf", but like with all other uses of smurf, they could somehow tell who people were talking about.
>>
thank you OP
why are french comics so good? this and Asterix were my favourites as a kid
>>
Thanks OP.
>>88840423
Wasn't grouchythe one that painted himself to infiltrate the blues, so the antidote didn't make contact with his skin enough?
>>
>>88840560
They explicitly say that Grouchy was the first Smurf to get infected, and he was like that ever since, presumably because he was under the effects longer or something.
>>
>>88840315
>Bridge Over the River Smurf
La la la la lalalaaa, La la la la lalalaaa.
>>
>>88840653
It's funny, even though they don't have any names I still recognize a bunch of them. Brainy, Clumsy, Jokie are all here even if they're not named.
>>
>>88840689
Anon, it's not over, the album is 48 pages long, there are 2 more stories.
>>
>>88840708
>>88840689
Yeah, i wouldn't mind reading that comic but if it could be posted after the Graphic Novel is finished I'd appreciate it.
>>
>>88840708
>>88840678
What the hell? They skipped Gargamel's debut story in the English edition and put it somewhere else? Why?
>>
>>88840739
Sorry.
It's only 3 pages long with the pin-up, but I can delete it if you wish so.
>>
>>88840797
>>88840777
Yeah, if you could delete it I'd appreciate it. Go ahead and post afterwards, its just that in middle of storytimes it's easier to follow one comic then two inter-twined.
>>
>>88840821
Done.
I'll be gone to work soon, so here's the link if someone wants to read it:

>>
>>88840869
Why doesn't Brainy just get the nuts his damn self?
>>
>>88840753
Keep in mind that they released the book with their first appearance after this. Chronology didn't mean a thing.
>>
>>88840623
Man, Smurf's take on the zombie genre really is brutal
>>
>>88840933
>they released the book with their first appearance after this
That's because it was a "Johan et Pirlouit" story, the Smurfs are a spin-off. It would be pretty confusing for Americans to start there.
>>
>>88841027
Just so you all know, the Flying Smurf would eventually achieve his dream several albums later by building an airplane that actually works.
>>
>>88841027
So does this mean he's going toshit bricks?
>>
>>88841041
>Original album had a story showing Gargamel's first appearance
>Replace it with a story from several albums later (notice the different artstyle)
FOR WHAT PURPOSE?
>>
>>88840286
>John Romero
You mean George Romero right? John Romero is the guy who programmed on Wolf 3D and Doom
>>
>>88841169
>>88841106
Yeah, George Romero.
>>
>>88840884
BECAUSE PAPA SMURF SAID TO THEY GET THE WALLNUTS TOGETHER! AND PAPA SMURF IS AWAYS RIGHT! BECAUSE WHEN...
>>
>>88841169
>>88841199
So the moral of thiss story is that loners are freaks. You need to live in your communist town in order to be happy even though they can visit you at any time.
>>
>>88840883
Wait, the smurfs have military forces?
>>
>>88841227
>>88841227
Skipping the previews.
>>
>>88841257
I'm pretty sure that "Air Force" joke isn't in the original French
>>
>>88841272
And that's the first Graphic Novel. Nice story but since i was posting and reading I was always a few pages behind. Might do more later.
>>
>>88841305
You have to read it in the original Smurf to get the full impact!
>>
>>88840301
>Smurf pretending to be an alien is orange on this cover, like in the original
>>88841272
Is green on this cover
So which is it?
>>
>>88840229
>Les Schtroumpfs Noirs
Putain... Pendant que t'y es passe nous Tintin au Congo. Jsuis Tunisien mais jpréfère le racisme franco d'antan à l'hypocrisie à peine voilée d'aujourd'hui.
>>
>>88841251
>that loners are freaks
are you dumb? Not one of the smurfs complained about him moving away or told him that he is crazy because of it.
The "moral" is that when things become normal they might start to annoy you. When he was new in the forest he didn't mind the annoying animals that much but when he settled in he complained about them like he complained in the village.
>>
>>88841352
Truthfully, it's neither. Graphic Novel 7 is the AeroSmurf, about Flying Smurf building a plane. Don't know if they changed stories or if it was just a mis-leading cover.
>>
>>88840592
>Deepest smurf
>>
>>88841251
The moral is: Don't live in middle of the forest, go live... In the middle of the forest
>>
>>88841352
Green. I'm guessing they wanted the "alien" smurfs to look like aliens. Or maybe they thought orange savages with spears looked racist.
>>88841498
But their website lists number 7 as being Astrosmurf and Aerosmurf is 16
>http://papercutz.com/kids-comics-graphic-novels/the-smurfs
>>
>>88841680
Huh. The collection of Smurf Graphic novels I downloaded has the Aerosmurf twice, as #7 and as #16. Seems like I'm missing the Astrosmurfs.
>>
>>88841680
>Or maybe they thought orange savages with spears looked racist.
same reason why the Bzz smurfs aren't black.
>>
>>88840423
>Fun fact: this Smurf would later become Grouchy Smurf.
Yup, they mention it in the magic egg book, that he became all grouchy after getting bit.
>>
>>88841454
>smurfs
>racist
I didn't know black people were created by mosquito bites.
While you're at it, why not say that the smurfs are jews because they have big noses, or monarchists because of the white hats. It's easy to draw shitty parallels.
Maybe you need to stop seeing oppression everywhere.
>>
>>88840401
I remind from the flute with six smurfs movie from 1975 that Smurfland was first in a magical realm, while in the smurf comics and the cartoon it was just somewhere in a european medievil forest.
>>
>>88840559
Peyo was belgian
>>
>>88840599
wasn't it just a better idea if they protected their backs more.
>>
Thank you for storytime.
>>
>>88843022
>While you're at it, why not say that the smurfs are jews because they have big noses
actually Gargamel is the jew that's why he wants to turn the smurfs into gold coins.
>>
>>88844047
I'd go further and say that the spell that he used to create Smurfette was the same used to create the golem of Jewish legend.
