At the height of the age of heroes, evidence began to emerge of a cabal of criminals linked to rising supervillain activity and escalating terrorist threats. This cabal, known as the Light, was created by the immortal master villain Vandal Savage to oppose the calcified status quo established by the Justice League and the hero community at large.
The members of the Light believe that only through disaster, crime, and tragedy can humanity truly evolve. With this in mind, the Light’s endgame is to establish Earth as the dominant power in the known universe through manipulating world affairs, alliances of convenience with hostile alien powers, and pushing technology past what is possible.
