Holding onto this.
*In a board room, far above the streets, far out of reach from the prying eyes of the law, Lex Luthor sits at the head of a long, long table. In front of him sit dossier files on some of the more virulent trouble makers in the various worlds. He'd sent invitations to them all. A meeting of the minds. After all, he reasoned. What in the worlds said that Lex Luthor could not learn from Victor von Doom? "At least," he thought, "I can learn from his mistakes."*
*Still, the meeting was about far more than a pooling of information. It even had more in mind than a pooling of resources. It was to call together all those who stood in their solidarity against those who stood in their way. Those damnable "heroes" who simply HAD to involve themselves in EVERYthing.*
*True, once the heroes were disposed of, the ILI would surely fall in on itself. True, Lex foresaw a great deal of in-fighting even BEFORE than inevitable day. Still, iff they could coordinate their efforts . . . even SLIGHTLY . . . well. He hadn't thought that far ahead. He was still debating with himself who he thought would accept his invitation. Then who would accept his proposals.*
