Papercutz and Mad Cave Studios announced they will release The Smurfs Tales #8: The Smurfs and the Sorcerer’s Love in October 2023.
Has The Smurfs’ eternal rival, the wizard Gargamel, fallen under life’s ultimate spell…… LOVE??
Join Papa Smurf, Smurfette, and the rest of the lovable blue Smurfs for classic, three-apple tall adventures, translated into English for the first time!
Life for Gargamel has been frustrating as of late: he’s tired of hunting, living alone, and cooking for himself. A lady companion would be a solution… but who would take the frumpy evil sorcerer as a companion?! If love is magic, can even Gargamel be transformed for the better? The Smurfs think so and concoct a scheme to get Gargamel partnered up! Also featuring the Smurfs’ friends Johan and Peewit in an adventure of their own. Johan, the royal page, and Peewit, the court jester, investigate the truth behind a young noble with exceptional swordsmanship. Plus: Join the Smurfs for tales of magic and sorcery, along with fun short stories showcasing the whole Smurfs Village. A perfect tie-in opportunity with the all-new SMURFS animated series on Nickelodeon!
The 160-page The Smurfs Tales #8 is scheduled to arrive on October 24, 2023.
