Comic Book artist Francesco Francavilla has created some gorgeous Breaking Bad posters for every episode of season 1, 2 and the final half of season 5. While these Breaking Bad posters may be [minimalist in design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beige-billboards), Francavilla has managed to capture and distill the essence of every episode into a single image. In one of the Breaking Bad posters, the audience sees the broken plate from episode 3 that lead to Walter White's first kill and in another, Francavilla draws the logo of Los Pollos Hermanos, commemorating the first time we meet Gus Fring in episode 11 of season 2.

Saying goodbye can be hard to do, and with the series now over, I can think of no better way to ease the pain than by looking back on the great moments of this show, thanks to these Breaking Bad posters. Hopefully Francavilla will have Breaking Bad posters for the remaining seasons up on his [tumblr page](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inkposter-duna) soon.
