ABOUT



Hello! I am Gerry Alanguilan, known elsewhere as Doroteo Gerardo N. Alanguilan Jr., a Filipino comic book writer, artist and publisher. I’m an Architect by profession, and a member of the San Pablo Chapter of the United Architects of the Philippines. However, I prefer to be a storyteller through the creation of comic books.

I have written and/or drawn comics like Wasted, Timawa, Lastik-Man, Crest Hut Butt Shop, Johnny Balbona, Humanis Rex!, Where Bold Stars Go To Die, Rodski Patotski: Ang Dalagang Baby and ELMER. The latter three I published from through my own Komikero Publishing. ELMER was eventually picked up by SLG Publishing for publication Internationally in 2010. Editions Ca Et La at the same time released a French Translation in Europe.

I have also been an inker of comics for DC, Marvel and Image, and I have worked with Leinil Francis Yu and Whilce Portacio on titles like Wolverine, X-men, X-Force, Superman, Batman, Fantastic Four, Iron Man, Wetworks, Grifter, High Roads, Silent Dragon, Ultimate Avengers: Crime and Punishment, Superior, Ultimate Avengers Vs New Ultimates: Death of Spider-Man, Indestructible Hulk, and Star Wars.

I have also adapted and illustrated various short stories by classic authors for Graphic Classics including “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe, “The Judge’s House” by Bram Stoker, “The Plague of Ghosts” by Rafael Sabatini and many more.

I’m also very interested in promoting and preserving the artwork created by the many great Filipino comics illustrators of our past. I'm currently fixing my old komiks museum and hopefully it will be up soon. I have a bricks and mortar komiks museum that's located here in San Pablo City. You can find more info about that komiks museum here.

And yes, this is also ME.
