Possibly the greatest cartoonist ever - wonderful to the end, and so often, no captions needed. Thanks, Mr. Door Tree, for feeding my macabre!

Tim Burton, eat your heart out. (In this case, perhaps literally!)

Great stuff, thanks for the scans.

Years ago I saw a display of Adams' originals at the New York Public Library, the originals are incredibly much more beautiful and lush than any of the reproductions I've seen.

Still, it's always a joy to revisit this work.

These are amazing, and very funny. I love the comic with the empty bus ringing for a stop ... classic Addams humor.
