Gomez Addams is a fictional character from The Addams Family franchise, created by cartoonist Charles Addams in 1938 for The New Yorker. He is the patriarch of the eccentric Addams family — wealthy, passionate, and deeply devoted to his wife Morticia. Portrayed memorably by John Astin, Raul Julia, and Oscar Isaac, Gomez is one of fiction's most devoted husbands.

Why Does the Addams Family Endure?
