We’ve been pretty busy around the Major Spoilers HQ, so I was surprised to realize the Summer Olympics happens this year. The Smurfs don’t forget, as Papercutz announced plans to re-release The Smurfs Olympic Special.
Here is the solicitation information from the publisher:
Papercutz is celebrating the XXXIII Olympiad with The Smurf Olympics! Hefty Smurf loves to play sports, but he can’t get the other Smurfs to play with him. His solution? Create the “Smurf Olympics”! The Smurfs divide themselves into two teams, all competing for the grand prize: a kiss from the Smurfette. But when one Smurf is turned down by both teams, he decides to compete on his own, throwing the games into chaos! Can one Smurf take on the whole village? And can the Smurfs stop cheating and playing pranks on each other long enough for the games to actually take place? Find out in this special one-shot release of the classic story from 1979!
The Smurfs Olympic Special arrives on June 26, 2024 for a mere $3.99.
