I mean, even if you change the genre it would probably inevitably end up involving a fight with some villainous force and righting some injustice in my opinion unless the Superhero aspect took a complete backseat.
What kind of crimes, though? Because street levellers tend to portray it as guys robbing banks and stuff. Is that even really a thing anymore? There's a lot of crime out there but it's against minority groups not like how it is in the comics I've seen. But the whole 'crime-filled city needs masked vigilante' is starting to sound to me like the smart kind of propaganda used to justify extreme police actions and extrajudicial violence.
