I have to agree with OL, other than Demon Constantine being there this doesn't look that bad. It's not illegal to research superspeed.
Things are obviously going to happen, but I'd find it hilarious if this was a legitimate moment where it looks like there's a big sinister secret happening, but there actually just isn't.
Like that one time OL and Kon came across that guy who's crime looked like a street performance, and OL remarked that while it might very well be a crime, "How embarrassed would we be if it's not?" or something like that.

... you realize that it is one of the most popular ideologies on earth? yes it does not make any goddamn sense whatsoever.
Yes it is moronic, and despite all that, lots of people really believe in it.
The assertion with such absolute certainty that they undergo that specific analysis you do to aim for the most control rather than having any ideology whatsoever is nonsensical.
Certainly, oftentimes people will choose power over ideology. But that doesn't mean ideology isn't a thing at all
Its cute how he actually believes that
Hey, you know what else the league official charter shouldn't be supporting? nabu!

In the comics, Johnny Sorrow retrieved The Rival's soul from the speedforce, and placed him in Max Mercury.
Max is possessed, and probably the one to attack the lab, because he currently isn't actually Max.

...and this is one of my absolute favorite things about this fic: the way so much is dug out (no doubt by the legions Zoat keeps slaving away in the salt mines, right next to Jingles' workers) and worked into the story.

Mind control is the kind of low powered evil magic you would hire a demon for.

Really hope Max isn't the bad guy in this situation.
Or this.
Hypothetically, who would benefit the most from a superhuman arms race? I know several villains employ a "survival of the fittest" mentality, and amoral businesses would make a fortune off of the military industrial complex.
For comic book logic, a small team of extraordinary individuals is always more effective than an army/nation/planet of normal people, but OL is trying his best to subvert this.

Semi-OT: When will Lexcorp's Danner research bear fruit?
I guess I'm accustomed to comic book scientists being able to whip up super-science at ludicrous speeds, while "With This Ring" is trying to be reasonable and require months/years of R&D before tangible results are achieved.

Question: What is it called when you avoid testing an experimental scientific procedure on criminals so you don't end up with a super-powered criminal? Aside from "common sense", I mean.
Question: How many people on Grayven's team is aware that Mister Tawny's intelligence was boosted Venom-Buster and further enhanced by being awakened into a New God? Or are they keeping this a secret from the rest of the group? [(
Grayven's team needs a name!!!)]Sunset's research would benefit from knowing how non-human souls develop divinity, and she might become curious about what might happen if a Terran horse was Awakened to see how a unicorn-turned-human-aspiring-alicorn compares to an Awakened Terran horse.
Under ideal circumstances, Grayven would Awaken the local DC-version of a Pegasus or Unicorn (from Themyscira?).

They're sort of working backwards. They already have the Danner formula, so now they're doing the work required to get it approved for Human use. It's a somewhat unusual situation.
The Sphere probably knows.
Not yet it doesn't. But I do have one in mind.[(

Then clearly he will have to duel them to the death for rights to the name as is Apokalyptian tradition.

Just change the name to "Gods formerly known as Newest Gods".

But that's even more of a mouthful than New New Gods! (Although I guess then it would be New New New Gods, but still shorter!)
I like this solution much better.
Isn't it obvious? Grayven's team is going to usurp The Light.
