A vigilante (borrowed from Spanish "vigilante", which means "sentinel" or "watcher", from Latin vigilāns) is a person who practices or partakes in vigilantism, or undertakes public safety and retributive justice without commission.
The innovation of automobile manufacturing displayed in road and motorsport vehicles during this decade seems to directly speak to the theme of retrofitting and jury rigging of vehicles in the texts looked at here.

The Vigilante Man is a man who brings criminals to justice by any means necessary, even if it means killing the criminals outright. Although he is breaking the law, he is presented as the good guy. If the police are after him, expect them to secretly sympathize with his goals. Occasionally, one officer is determined to catch the Vigilante Man, but you can be sure that his fellow officers aren't working very hard to help him. The "good" Vigilante Man refuses to fight the police, and if confronted, will either surrender or die before harming them, and may even try to keep killing to zero whenever possible. The "bad" Vigilante Man is willing to kill anyone who tries to stop him. (In such cases, compare with the Cowboy Cop.)
"Urban vigilante" protagonists were a staple of action movies roughly between the 1970s and the very early 1990s mainly as rising crime rates and increasing police corruption (and racism in the case of blaxploitation films) led people to lose faith in the long arm of the law and act for themselves instead. Concerns about justice by one's own hand eventually led to a more negative view of vigilantes, and modern straight examples are often frowned upon.
A subtrope of the Anti-Hero and Well-Intentioned Extremist. May be Neutral Good, True Neutral, Neutral Evil, Chaotic Good, Chaotic Neutral, or even Chaotic Evil, depending on the setting. If he stops discriminating between innocents and bad guys, he might end up Jumping Off the Slippery Slope and become that which he despises. Sometimes he can be a Reformed, but Not Tamed character. Vigilante Injustice does come into play when the vigilante man is clearly counterproductive and problematic for the law enforcers.
Other
- Victor Ray from 100 Bullets kills criminals in his spare time to balance out the awful things he does on behalf of Agent Graves.
- John Dusk, the protagonist of Absolution. He's a superhero in a setting where the superheroes are all legitimate law enforcement officers, which means they have to observe due process and other pesky legal restrictions. One day, he gets fed up with having his hands tied, and starts killing.
- Archie Comics line-up of Dark Circle Comics, has Greg Hettinger, the Black Hood. Greg is a mutilated cop with a drug habit who, after a few rough spots, has taken on the identity of the Black Hood ((he had previously killed the former Black Hood)) in order to take down untouchable criminals like the mayor's brother.
- Although Astro City is more idealistic than not, it does have its share of rough-and-tumble heroes. Examples include the Blue Knight, Hellhound, the Pale Horseman, Hollowpoint, and the Street Angel (during his Darker and Edgier phase).
- Eric Draven in The Crow. Although, since he's already died and has resurrected as an unkillable zombie, he's technically a Vigilante Thing.
- Judge Dredd: Naturally, as a brutal By-the-Book Cop, Judge Dredd will crack down hard on vigilantes in Mega-City One who think they should "assist" the Justice Department in its duties. They're not the law, HE is the law.
- Pack: The vigilante in question is Patience, who leads a pack of dogs in a crusade against criminal elements in Brooklyn. He is not above having them maul criminals.
- Paperinik New Adventures: In the early stories, Paperinik (Donald Duck's superhero alter ego in some Italian stories) was not actually a superhero, but an anti-hero vindicator inspired by Diabolik and Fantômas that punish bad people with terror and humiliations. The writers toned this aspect down later and turned him into a Batman-style heroic avenger instead, and he started targeting the criminal population of Duckburg, in particular the Beagle Boys.
- Find a hero who doesn't fit this trope in Sin City.
- Mr. Dig in Sink is a fox-masked vigilante who dishes out his own brand of justice on those unfortunate to cross him.
- Casey Jones from the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics.
- V from V for Vendetta. While throughout the series he's seen as more of a... vengeful terrorist, he does show some (although few) signs that he started out as one of these and simply got tired of not making progress.
Music
- The Abney Park song "Victorian Vigilante" is about one of these.
- Woody Guthrie's "Vigilante Man" is actually about how American workers would be attacked and beaten by the people of the towns they passed through during The Depression.
- Insane Clown Posse: "To Catch a Predator" is about a guy who pretends to be a child and lures pedophiles to his house, where he kidnaps the creeps and locks them in a Torture Cellar.
- To Hell and Back has James Vela, the main character of the song This Is My Heart. Because of an event in his past, James began murdering sex offenders, as he believed the victims weren't getting actual justice. He managed to kill 17 people before being caught and executed.

Visual Novels
- Ace Attorney Investigations:
- The Yatagarasu, a noble thief who steals information on corrupt business dealings and sends them to the media. Establishing the identity and motivations of the Yatagarasu and its target are a big part of the game's plot. Kay Faraday tries to pick up the tradition after the first Yatagarasu is put out of action. She's not very good at it.
- In the sequel, Big Bad Simon Keyes is driven by both Killing in Self-Defense and Revenge against the internationally powerful fake President Huang and other villains who have terrorized him for most of his life. However, he's also willing to frame innocent people in the process, thus making himself the He Who Fights Monsters variety of this.
- In Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, the group learns about a Spanish vigilante called Sparkling Justice who kills corrupt people in the name of justice, leaving behind a mask as a calling card. Peko Pekoyama pretends to be Sparkling Justice when cornered as the culprit for killing Mahiru Koizumi(who'd tried to dispose of evidence for a murder her friend had committed), believing that if she were convicted, she could claim that her master, Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu, was truly responsible, enabling him to graduate.
- Among the Shall We Date? visual novels, two deal with groups of these:
- Shall We Date?: Ninja Assassin begins with the murder of the Player Character's family in Edo (the old Tokyo) and her swearing revenge. She hears of a vigilante group that can carry revenges and looks for them, and after witnessing one of their assassinations, they accept her request and take her in.
- The Ninja Assassin Spin-Off Shall We Date?: Ninja Shadow has the Player Character pulling a Sweet Polly Oliver and joining a vigilante group in Nagasaki, which her twin brother was supposed to join before he was killed in front of her. The guys from Ninja Assassin, whose vigilante group has a deep bond with this one, make several appearances and are even quite vital in some of the routes.
Webcomics
- In The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, Dr. McNinja is a doctor and a ninja. Who desperately wants to be Batman. The police of Cumberland know who he is and what he does, but he's made a deal with them: after any action they could arrest him for, if he can get back to his office and declare "Base!" before they catch him, he's off the hook for it. He's never shown actually doing so, and most episodes end with him back at the office and no evidence that the police even tried to catch him.
- Axe Cop. The police are after him, everyone he kills is evil, and he uses lethal force against pretty much everyone "bad". Though he switches back and forth on the killing of public servants (he beheads many FBI agents to protect Uni-Baby, but is unwilling to kill the police officers trying to arrest him).
- In Homestuck, Terezi is pretty obsessed with this kind of justice, which funnily enough is not too different from the actual court system in Troll society. She also used to partner up with Vriska in FLARP session to kill off other players, but only the ones that really deserved to be punished. She leaves when Vriska starts murdering indiscriminately.
- Oasis from Sluggy Freelance took on this role when she lived in Podunkton, killing pretty much the entire mafia establishment in town, as well as any miscellaneous crooks who pass through. She seems to do this largely out of boredom. However, since she had previously been an Ax-Crazy assassin who'd kill anyone who came between her and Torg, this vigilante justice is actually a sign of Oasis becoming less violent.
