Gerry Alanguilan is an architect by profession, but a comic book writer and artist by practice. He has been writing and drawing comics in the Philippines since 1992, and worked as an inker and illustrator for US comics since 1995.

Alanguilan started his US career by inking another artist from the Philippines, Whilce Portacio on books like Wetworks published by Wildstorm Comics. Later, he worked on Tales of the Darkness for Top Cow, Stone, once again inking Whilce Portacio. He also inked Iron Man when Marvel Comics hired Jim Lee's studio for a year for the Heroes Reborn event.

Alanguilan started his association with Leinil Francis Yu, first for Marvel Comics on Wolverine, X-Men, Fantastic Four and X-Force. Still with Leinil Francis Yu, he inked the creator-owned High Roads published through Cliffhanger. For DC Comics, and once again with Yu and writer Mark Waid, he inked the limited series Superman: Birthright. It was followed by a limited series for Wildstorm, Silent Dragon, still illustrated by Leinil Francis Yu.
