When one Livonia, Michigan woman learned that her Batman-obsessed boyfriend was cheating, she didn't give him the response he needed — she gave him the response he deserved.

Amy Estrada purchased a Dodge Nitro in her name, which she then gave to her boyfriend. "I got that car for him in my name because I thought that he was going to love me forever," she tells Fox 2 Detroit.

Her boyfriend tricked out the car to resemble his own "Batmobile," complete with several Batman decals on the back.

Estrada soon discovered, however, that the $5,000+ extras on the car had been paid for by another woman. THE other woman, in fact.

When she found out about the affair, Estrada knew she had to go straight for the throat — or in this case, the car. She posted the Nitro to Craigslist for $15,000. In the Craigslist description, she wrote:

If you are a Batman freak, this is the Batmobile for you ... It is in my name, but I got it for my ex, who turned around and got all the extras paid for by his side chick. I need to sell this Nitro, I cannot afford to keep it, nor do I want to look at it anymore.

The car is currently sitting in front of Estrada's house, and bears a not-too-subtle tribute to her philandering ex.

Though she is upset about the infidelity, Estrada says that she did exactly what she needed to do in order to feel vindication.

"I knew this was the way I could kind of just hurt him back where it counted."

Now that's some tough justice even the Justice League could get behind.
