''Justice Riders'' was an {{Elseworld}} published in 1997, written by Creator/ChuckDixon and illustrated by J.H. Williams III.

The premise concerns a version of the Justice League consisting of Wild West heroes coming together to defeat an alliance between Maxwell Lord and Felix Faust.

''ComicBook/TheMultiversity'' established a world at least similar to this continuity as existing in Earth-18.

!!Trope:
* AdaptationalVillainy: Maxwell Lord is the villain in this continuity (this was years before he became evil in the lead-up to ''ComicBook/InfiniteCrisis'').
* AdaptationalWimp:
** This continuity's Booster Gold does not have futuristic tech to assist him.
** Guy Gardner doesn't have a Green Lantern ring and only uses guns.
* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: Diana Prince isn't called Wonder Woman, John Jones isn't called Martian Manhunter and Wally West's deceased predecessor Barry Allen isn't called the Flash.
* TheGhost: Solomon Grundy is mentioned as someone Guy Gardner successfully gunned down, but he doesn't physically appear.
* IDontLikeTheSoundOfThatPlace: The heroes fight Maxwell Lord and Felix Faust in Helldorado, with Booster Gold even pointing out that the location's name screams bad news.
* {{Irony}}: Colonel Kent chooses to omit the detail of Blue Beetle's story about an alien being involved on the grounds that it isn't very believable, when Clark Kent is traditionally the civilian identity of the Kryptonian superhero Superman.
* PantsPullingPrank: Kid Flash uses his super speed to stop some outlaws by pulling their pants down.
* PosthumousCharacter: Barry Allen has already died and Kid Flash is on the run because he's been falsely accused of causing Barry's death.
* RoboticReveal: Diana Prince has a showdown with Maxwell Lord who turns out to be a Clockwork Man standing in for him.
* SequelHook: [[spoiler:Felix Faust rises back up after being seemingly shot dead and goes about his merry way.]]
* TheWildWest: An interpretation of the Justice League where the heroes are 19th-century gunslingers.
