Xavi "El Papa" Feliu

Born in the darkest slums of a rotting Havana, Xavi distinguished himself in his early years by creating ideas that surviving where most did not.

By the time he had reached his eighteenth birthday, he was credited with creating the legend behind Fidel Castro, the poster behind Che Guevara and the cigar behind Monika Lewinski.

With skills in project management and creative development, "El Papa" is the productive core of the Revolution.

Daniel "El Guapo" Lauding

Few things in life are as sublime as the genuinely expressed aesthetic, unless they are the death of the enemies of the People.

Daniel is an artist, the Revolution is his canvas, he brings forms out of chaos and chaos out of forms.

Designing a digital cause takes vision and guts, Lauding has both.

Martin "El Commandante" Schvartzman

When he was ten years old, Martin's father immigrated to Cuba from Argentina. His family were traditional aristocracy but they abandoned their stolen wealth to join the cause of the People. Martin grew up knowing first hand the effects of an unequal dispensation of wealth, he knew the stain on the soul it brought to know his prosperity was conditional on the misery of others.

Today he brings the fire of righteous indignation to his role of Commandant of the Revolution, he manages the strength, marshalls the forces and promotes the unity of common purpose.

Per "El Perro" Westholme

Per learned to fly from a drunken Russian Pilot called Dmitri Vladakovich when he was 15.

In exchange for cheap vodka and a place to live, Vladakovich gave the revolution a pilot that flew so beautifully, to watch him fly was to watch an angel soar.

This facility for airy beauty makes him a first rate Art Director, beholden by no rules.

Magnus "El Ojo" Karlsson

When the Russians first came to Cuba, they brought many things. Vodka, politics, hope and Magnus Karlsson.

A legend even before he set foot in Havana, from the jungles of Paraguay to the mountains of Santiago, the name "El Ojo" was whispered around campfires wherever the People feared to say the word "freedom".

Equipped with a peerless ability to create, design and execute digital solutions, Magnus brings the strength of the Russian bear to bear on every problem.

Sigurd "La Muerte" Finseth

Bought as an orphan and trained as an assassin, Sigurd brings angry ends to many tricky problems.

Skilled with a knife and a pen, Sigurd first realised that he loved to draw when he saw familiar patterns in the blood of the tenth man he had ended for the good of the Revolution.

Soon becoming a feared calling card, many Fascists were found surrounded by pools of blood that had been fashioned into beautiful designs.

Rudhraigh "La Voz" McGrath

A man without a past, McGrath quickly became the voice of the Revolution.

It is his words that put the fire in the blood of the People, his voice that resonates through the world calling for change.

To hear him talk is to know the thoughts and hopes of a world desperate for justice and equality for all mankind.

About

In 1959, the Cuban revolution ended but the Global revolution was just beginning.

One of the most legendary groups of this new revolution called themselves the "Compadres". They were Castro's personal propaganda machine, they created the cult of personality that fuelled the national fervor for change. But Castro was a jealous tyrant, and soon knew that his personal position relied too much on the whims of these zealots for the Revolution. They became outcasts, legends, appearing anywhere the people cried out for real change.
