Very incredible art dedicated to our little blue friends! Props to you all! I remembered that other comics character also made his debut in 1958: Oumpah-Pah, by the creators of Asterix, so I imagined how fun putting him and 'Two-Scalp' his friend celebrating with the Smurf - and Gargamel couldn't help appearing, too!

Since the texts became somewhat small to be read, I'm transcribing them here:
"MAY NANABOHZO THE GREAT RABBIT AND THE PUMA (MY TOTEM) ALWAYS WATCH OVER YOU, MY LITTLE BLUE BROTHERS AND SISTERS!"
"SMURFY THANKS, BRAVE WARRIOR, AND LET MOTHER NATURE LOOK AFTER YOU, YOUR TRIBE AND FRIENDS!"
"RELAX, GARGAMEL... WE PROMISE WE’LL SMURF THE GAG OUT OF YOUR MOUTH WHEN IT’S TIME TO CUT THE CAKE SO THAT YOU’LL BE GIVEN A SLICE!"
On the stone: (* I HATE THE SMURFS... AND NOW THESE TWO MEDDLESOME STRANGERS TOO!)
-------------------- Keep on always smurfin'!!

You're right. It hasn't been confirmed yet.

The Smurfs turn 60 with a bang in Brussels
The Smurfs turn 60 with a bang in Brussels
[This video was created by the communist Chinese government's CGTN]
Belgium celebrated the 60th anniversary of the creation of legendary cartoon characters – the Smurfs on October 23. Dozens dressed in blue attended the event. Veronique Culliford, daughter of Pierre Culliford, the creator of the Smurfs, attended the event in Brussels and said she was very happy that the characters remain popular. Cartoonist Pierre Culliford, who worked under the name "pseudonym Peyo", died in 1992.

That's probably not a good idea, we all know what happened last time the smurfs started using currency ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

You're right. It hasn't been confirmed yet.
It would be a waste when they went through all the trouble to create something new.
