From a pop culture perspective when you see a sports bike being used in a gang sense it tends to be tied to one of two groups, fictionalised versions of either The Triad or the Yakuza and whilst I have made a very concieted effort to avoid real world groups being inspired from their fictionalised counterparts worked for Hades so why not for the sportsbikes as well. The Komodo Dragon is just an awesome and fierce looking creatures plus I thought the name sounded cool without being something you could easilly point and say “hey thats just x or z”

Giving the group more character.

The power of The Komodo comes from their anonymity, members will very rarely reveal themselves outside of private in house meetings and are quite often dressed in full leathers with full face helmets anytime they leave their compounds. The only exception to this is the occasional leader who’s ego convinced them theyre untouchable. Members are often highly successful financially and owe their comfortable lives quite literally to the Komodo. If their identity was to be revealed its likely that would quickly change. The organisation itself had actualy started to infiltrate Entropy City some years before the fall but its hard to tie down the exact point where it started because of the nature of how they operate however by the time the fall took place The Komodo had their hands in pretty much everything and no-one truly understood this until much later.

Recruitment into The Komodo can be varied depending on who you are the role they wish for you to fill, needless to say until you’re deep you wont know who exactly have been drawing you in but rumour has it that once you are a member of The Komodo, the only way you leave is in a coffin.

The original logo was quite literally traced from a photograph of a real Komodo Dragon, just to see if it could work visually, as I was fleshing out the various placeholder inspirations I wanted to add a little more flavour, for the final version of this Id very much like it to look like actual tattoo art, thats the vision I have in my head, inked on the skin rather than a decorative patch, and using some swirling mist and smoke that looked unnatural felt like the right move to me. Hence where the logo currently stands..

Needless to say I feel Im on the right track but more than any other I expect this is the logo that will change the most before its final version.
