A lot of the comments in the articles and posts have been from people threatening to make him need that insurance. Artists take plagiarism very seriously.
DC comics has also gotten involved, as it would seem that he's been selling art of their characters.
Whoever here has heard of Art4love, raise your hand.
*counts*
I'm afraid I only count as part of that tally because of a fiasco currently in the making that rhymes with "slagiarism." It would seem that a certain Chad Love-Lieberman has been taking works of art from the internet, changing the names, and selling them at ridiculously high prices under his own name at Art4Love.com. A number of artists have responded angrily and the website is now operating through proxies.
I can hear the sound of lawsuits flying through the air as we speak.

I'm a regular on deviantART. I noticed a few news articles about it this morning while I was checking my messages.
I wonder if he really thinks he can hide now that he has so much attention?
I'm also a regular on DeviantART, but I don't think I've heard of this before.
Still... wow. Just wow. How lazy can people get?!? At least the people he's stolen from aren't taking it lying down.
