There are basically a million things to love about Portal 2, like Wheatley’s evil laugh or the touching finale, but Aperture CEO Cave Johnson stands out as a man among men. He may have tricked hobos into taking experimental drugs and poisoned people with asbestos, but he did it with a unique flare of individuality that’s magnetic. Thanks to the good people at ThinkGeek soon you’ll be able to be inspired by Cave all day long with a talking portrait of the big man.

The 15 1/2" x 11 1/2" framed image shows Cave as he looked during the swinging 1970s where he lorded over Aperture Science before his experiments with moon rocks got the best of him. The portrait even says classic Cave quotes, and here's ThinkGeek's full list of quotes. Sadly, the item won’t be on sale for about a month, but you can sign up for email notification on the availability by visiting the store page. It’s $39.99, but you can’t really put a price on something this inspiring?
