Warner Bros company recently announced that a Justice League movie will be coming to theaters. The movie, which will come in two parts ,will be directed by Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice director Zack Snyder. It was also reported that Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, and Gal Gadot will reprise their roles as Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, respectively. Sounds amazing, right? The Justice League movie will take only after two years so just let your imagination work and dream of what would the Justice League movie look like while waiting.
If you don't want some imagining to do about the upcoming Justice League movie, here's what you can do. Head over to San Diego, stay in a corner and wait for the Xtreme Justice League, California's version of their own vigilante superheroes. Their members got cooler names than the ones you see in the comics. They have Midnight Highwayman, Vigilante Spider, Phoenix Jones, Purple Reign, and Mr. Xtreme. Draped in their unique costumes, they stroll down the city and help stop possible crimes.

Although they are perceived as vigilantes, the group insist they are not like that. They do not hand justice through their own hands. Instead, they implement citizen's arrest through the use of martial arts and provide basic first aid to those who are needing one. They also use the things they learn in conflict resolution and scenario training for patrol situations that the club hosts for their members.
"We are not vigilantes," the Xtreme Justice League website says. "A vigilante is an individual that punishes criminals and violates their civil rights. We do not punish criminals. We work with the police if a crime is committed. We only use force as a last resort. We only use force in self-defense of ourselves or an innocent person."
Still, the group says they are inspied by comic book characters, like the ones that will appear in the Justice League movie.
Reuters walked with the Xtreme Justice League once and photojournalist Mike Blake personally witnessed them in action. They walk along empty dark streets, checked on homeless and drunk people, and broke a fight when they witnessed one. When asked why they are doing it, Xtreme Justice League leader Mr. Xtreme said it is because he wants to do it people and "make a difference."
