Artist Jonas Jödicke, known for his Galaxy Wolf illustration, has fought back against widespread theft of his artwork by online stores. His piece, inspired by the 2010's Galaxy Wolf trend, was frequently printed on various items such as hoodies, mugs, and even toilet seats without his permission. Over the past decade, Jödicke has filed lawsuits against more than 4,000 shops, seeking compensation for the unauthorized use of his work. His legal efforts have been successful enough to allow him to purchase a home.
