Homebodies

Charles Addams's Homebodies (1954–present) is a one-issue comic published by Simon and Schuster, collecting the macabre, single-panel cartoons that made Addams a household name. This volume showcases his signature blend of gothic whimsy and dark suburban satire, featuring the delightfully morbid family that would later become the Addams Family. A cornerstone of mid-century cartooning, Homebodies captures Addams's singular vision at its most concentrated, cementing his legacy as a master of the off-kilter American domestic scene.
