King Smurf

Peyo (creator of The Smurfs) and Yvan Delporte penned this 1977 one-shot from Random House, illustrated by Derib and Peyo. The story casts the Smurfs' usual blue-skinned world into a royal drama, exploring what happens when their miniature society crowns a king. While a single issue, it stands as a curious, standalone expansion of Peyo's beloved franchise, offering a glimpse of the characters in an unusual political light.
