The Weird Society began in
1995 when Renee Perry took an acting class with Maria Muniz and Courtney
Russell. During one class, when they were bored and waiting for their cues,
Courtney began to tell her friends of her extra-terrestial origins, and
demonstrated several of her powers. Renee, inspired by this exciting development,
went straight home and drew a six page comic book, the Adventures of Superkid.
At the end of this comic,
Renee inserted herself as Superkid's new sidekid, HyperChild, the Girl
of the Perpetual Sugar Rush. HyperChild, however, did not want to remain
a sidekick for long. And other people took an interest in this new pasttime.
Superkid and HyperChild
had not even fought crime in a second issue when Maria made her debut as
that Psychic Socialite, Kid Psycho.
Soon, everyone else wanted
to get in on the fun. For artistic integrity, and creative inspiration,
Renee took only the most interesting, and therefore weird, people around
her. Maria's annoying neighbor Matt became Normal Boy. Her sister aquired
the appropriate title Evil Sister. A friend at school became The Blonde
Avenger and her sidekick Politically Correct Girl. Their archenemy was
another student at the school, one Sexist Man. Fellow students in the influential
acting class became The Prince and Flame Lad. In climax, even HyperChild's
sister won her way into the comic -- with the appropriate pseudonym Annoying
Girl. Not even the school's substitute teachers could escape from Renee's
relentless search for villains when she created L.O.S.T. -- the Legion
Of Substitute Teachers.
Renee was sleeping over Maria's house one night
when she had a terrific idea. Whay not write a Constitution and make the
Weird Society a real club? So she and Maria went upstairs and did just
that.
The original version of this document is now kept in The Filing Cabinet in Renee's room, along with the Weird Society comics and other important Historical Documents.
The online version, which is slightly less concerned with TV than the original, was drafted by Renee upon the founding of the Weird Society Online. Cool, huh?
