Also @Mr Zoat that should be "part 11"
Thank you, corrected.
I love how OL's influence totally makes a search warrant for Baleful or Sorcerous Weapons a thing.
Actually, those were illegal in Gotham already. Thank you, Puritans.
 
Deamon Jizz. Charming. I'm really hoping that's a euphemism.
Normally for something this complexes the odds of it being something so unrefined are low, but well it's hell, so....
Incubus: "If you Demon Lords would just talk to us common Demons now and then, you'd have found out about that centuries ago. 'No oral with mortals unless you want it bitten off', that's the Incubus motto."

ah, so willing minions rather than hapless dupes. That's going to make the severe mauling the team gave them a bit less traumatizing, still proably going to be more than a bit shaken up about almost killing some people. Also there objective raises an interesting question, what is the light afraid of star labs learning? While the minions they sent were immensely disposable, revealing the existence of DMN is a non trivial strategic expenditure and is a bit at odds with using such utterly disposable minions. Maybe this is santus trying to make a good impression and using a fancier trick than he needed to?

Honestly if the team is traumatized or shaken up about nearly killing someone they should find different hobbies because heroing requires frequently being serious fights and people are going to get hurt.
 
Counterargument: they've been giving the drug to idiots. It was only a matter of time before its existence came to light.

Plus, so what that it's been revealed? This is the Light, the same guys who already have the danner formula, venom, blockbuster, and venombuster. The Justice League already knows these guys have the capacity to enhance mooks when they want to.

If Satanus isn't already working on DMN 2.0, the Light probably already has DMNvenom and DMNbuster cocktails in the works.

A productive update.

The sight of that creature moving through the air has inspired me.
Humm… might be an idea to introduce him to the poems that were written in the WWI trenches.

"As a narcotic? No. But I think I could convince a judge that they should count as 'baleful or sorcerous weapons', and there's a decent penalty for using those.
Nice to see one of those 'burn the witch' type laws help the heroes for once.

It's surprising how often that happens. Also unfortunate, because they are sorely in need of updating.
 
American people: does spring break usually happen the week before Easter or the week after?
 
"How can you laugh about this?" Doctor Stone gestures at the wreck of the transport lorry. "That creature destroyed the samples! The Atlanteans will never trust us with a second batch, if they can even find one."
Hmm

"Destroyed. Not captured. Curious. Is this the first time you've transformed?"
If they had got away with it, it would have brought in the Entire Justice League. This accomplishes the goal, with less escalation. Also Destruction is easier then Extraction, and Mary Dey does not exactly scream "Criminal Mastermind" And if the Light already has/had samples...

Also this:
That could also accomplish the goal if it proved Star Labs was not secure enough to take custody of the remains. Like Zoat said, there are Three(3) places with Xeno labs that could take the remains, and one is run by the Chinese Govt and is not civilian. If they can make Star Labs seem unsuitable, then by its Charter the League has to send it to Lex Luthor no matter how much they dislike the idea because it is the only civilian lab qualified to take it.
Anything that makes Star Labs look bad makes Luthor Laboratories look good by comparison.

"Ah, Oh El?" Wallace raises his right eyebrow. "I don't think this stuff is actually illegal. I mean, it should be, but…" He shrugs.

"As a narcotic? No. But I think I could convince a judge that they should count as 'baleful or sorcerous weapons', and there's a decent penalty for using those. Robin, find out everything she knows. I'll get in contact with the Gotham police."
This is Dumb. It seems you are in control while taking it; it could be used you super heroism as well as villainy. Why not Just arrest them for Attacking Star Labs with Lethal Force?

As opposed to "Someone found a new trick, lets make it illegal by itself!"
When OL got that law passed allowing the JL to seize stuff from the "unqualified", he pretty much put the legalized the "find a mystic artifact, become superhero" trope. I mean how many of them know what they were doing in the beginning?

Heck, OL never went to certification class for power rings, AND there are Power Ring Villians Like Sinestro. I don't see him turning his ring over to the Lantern Corps, when the Guardians know all about power rings, and he, doesn't.

Actually, those were illegal in Gotham already. Thank you, Puritans.
Heh, get an arrest warrant for Nabu, because the Helmet is a "Sorcerous Weapon".

EDIT:
Yes, thus the spelling.
Wyrm would be more appropriate here. Never even saw the spelling you used before today.

Not worth it, getting a new Drug classified like that would involve going to the ATF and some intensive studies about the drugs long and short term effects.

Better you just charge them with assault, breaking and entering, littering, attempted robbery, and destruction of private property.

You misunderstood. That isn't about padding the charges against Mary Dey and the other attackers, that was about going after the other junkies and the suppliers turning people into demons.

Because oddly enough Paul doesn't think random junkies turning into demons is a good thing.

It varies. Many places split up spring break so that it is one or the other. Some out of differing traditions, some deliberately to keep problems with students from another school from happening. A few have set it away from Easter entirely, Massachusetts and Maine for example, set it to coincide with patriots day I believe...

But in most of the county it is usually the week before Easter or the week after. It all just depends on the school in question.

edit for clarity: schools often have wide latitude to set their own schedules, however they do not live in a vacuum. They know parents will be upset if say Christmas does not come with time off. Spring break is usually somehow connected with Easter as it is a convenient holiday that they can base it around, but the way it is accommodated or even if it is accommodated at all is very much at the mercy of the school board or other relevant school calendar approving authorities. Of which there can be as few as one per district or as many as one per school. So there is no country wide definitive week on which spring break happens.

And what negative short/long term side effects are there from the drug itself?

As far as we saw the girl in question mostly seemed to be using it for well very likely sex and vanity related enhancements.

Furthermore this isn't a single type of drug but multiple different one's each having a highly different effect depending on which demon essence was used as a basis.

So banning it outright would be the equivalent of banning all stimulants because of Cocaine.
