Although this story was published in English as "The Purple Smurfs", I want to present a fan adaptation of the original story.

A few notes in the translation of this story:
Some of the dialogue comes from the Purple Smurfs cartoon show episode.
References to the Bzz Fly ("la mouche Bzz") are rendered as "the black fly".
Papa Smurf's "name of a small Smurf", which is what he says in the original French version, has been changed to "Great Smurfness" except in one place, where it is changed to "I'll be smurfed".
At one point in the story, Papa Smurf says that "the blacks are contagious", which is changed to "the black Smurfs are contagious".

The Black Smurfs
The Black Smurfs is the first album of the original French-language Smurfs comic series created by Belgian artist Peyo, first published in 1963.
In a little mushroom village live the Smurfs, diminutive blue-skinned humanoid creatures. One day, one of them gets stung by a black fly that turns his skin jet black, reduces his vocabulary to the single word "gnap!", and causes him to go berserk. He bounces around and bites other Smurfs on their tail, which turns them into black Smurfs as well. Soon, almost everyone in the village has become a black Smurf, and Papa Smurf, the leader, tries to find a cure and cease the tail-biting epidemic. The cure is found in magnolia pollen, which is gathered in great quantity and loaded in fireplace bellows to be used as impromptu ranged weapons against contaminated Smurfs. The black Smurf has to inhale the pollen, which, after a loud and powerful sneeze, causes him to revert to his usual blue-skinned bonhomie. A great battle is fought outside the village, as the black, tail-biting horde closes in, threatening to destroy Smurf civilization for good.
The first black Smurf to have been transformed, meanwhile, recovers some semblance of ingenuity and paints himself blue to avoid being sprayed by the pollen-powered antidote. This allows him to ambush several normal Smurfs and reverse the outcome of the clash. In the end, only Papa Smurf still stands. He rushes to the lab to reload his bellow but is bitten while doing so. As he turns, he lets the large pollen jar fall into the fire, which causes the whole lab to explode. The resulting pollen cloud descends on the raving black Smurfs, reverting them to normality once and for all.
This is the only Smurfs comic book where a Smurf is seen without a hat. Papa Smurf has his blown away by an explosion, revealing a bald head. In a later adventure, "The Egg and the Smurfs", it is revealed that Grouchy Smurf's moody and unsociable personality is because of the lasting effects of the fly that stung him. In the Hanna-Barbera cartoon, Lazy Smurf is stung by the fly.
This story was later used as the basis for an episode of the Smurfs cartoon, though their skin color was changed from black to purple, due to racial connotations.
