Sick, subversive, unfailingly cool and composed, Wednesday Addams, the precocious and macabre daughter of Gomez and Morticia, is so weirdly charming. From a nameless little girl in Charles Addams’ original illustrations to her latest incarnation – as the main character of her own spinoff – Wednesday has always broken the mold for young girls in the media. We need more Wednesdays – more radical thinkers, more unabashed weirdos, more teenage girls being brave enough to go in different directions. So what can we learn from Wednesday, and how can we channel her weird power?
