Extreme Justice is a Justice League spin off in the DC comics universe. It ran for eighteen issues from 1994 to 1996. It was an attempt by DC to create a Justice League book that was more in line with the style of Image Comics of the time.
Several heroes split from the main Justice League over dissatisfaction with the League's association with the United Nations. These characters formed their own Justice League, based out of a base in Mount Thunder, Colorado. The team was led by Captain Atom and consisted of Maxima, Blue Beetle (Ted Kord), Booster Gold, and Amazing Man. They were later joined by Firestorm (Ronnie Raymond), Plastique, and the Wonder Twins Zan and Jayna. Carol Ferris became the administrator of their Mount Thunder facility. The team never referred to themselves as "Extreme Justice" in the title itself--however, they were referenced as such in an issue of "Justice League America" running at the time.
Although at one point there were three Justice League groups in action (Extreme Justice itself plus Justice League America and Justice League Task Force), there was very little unity between the teams and strong sense of rivalry on which was the superior team by their respective leaders, Wonder Woman, Captain Atom, and the Martian Manhunter in the pursuit of "justice".
