Creatures of the Night

Weregeek #2

"Geeks... they scuttle around the edges of society like cockroaches, spreading strangeness like a plague where they go." – Murdock, Geek Hunter

Of all the night's creatures, none is stranger than the Weregeek...

About the author

Alina Pete was born in the frozen wastes of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. To survive the harsh Canadian winters, she took to doodling funny animals on any available surface in a feeble attempt to stay warm. After high school, Alina studied classical animation and went to the University of Saskatchewan in pursuit of a BFA (which remains uncompleted). She followed this up with a 3D animation certificate, just for good measure. Alina is a firm believer in overkill.

Over the years, Alina has lived in Albera, Fiji, Arizona and China. She really gets around! At various times she has worked as a web designer, an art gallery director, a graphic designer and a digital effects artist. Her talents are displayed in such projects as Wapos Boy (Gemini Award-winning children's animation for Canadian television) and her online comics, Weregeek and Moosehead Stew.

Alina is a proud member of the Little Pine First Nation, a Cree native reservation located in central Saskatchewan. In her spare time, Alina enjoys playing a wide variety of role-playing games, designing elaborate costumes for LARP, painting Warhammer miniatures and console video gaming. She currently lives in Northern Alberta with her devoted boyfriend Layne and her pet hedgehogs.
