Dave Quiggle's "Icons of Affection" is borne of an ingenious idea: since so many of us treat pop culture as a religion anyway, why not pay tribute to the characters of film and television with the visual langage of religious iconography? And thus we have these clever (and beautiful) valentines to the heroes and antiheroes of Twin Peaks, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Mad Men, and more. We've picked out a few of our favorites; you can see them all (and order enough to build shrines of your own) on their site.
