"You hate these people, you hate everything about them, who they are, what they stand for. So forgive me if I'm a little confused as to why you'd want to bring them together."

"It's simple Ms. Wilde" he sat back down "protection."

"I don't follow."
She did, of course she did.

"Without them knowing, because if they know anything about me they'll never agree to it, I'll have them all under my thumb. It'll make it easy for me to take them all down, when I'm the one giving them their orders, more specifically, when you're will be giving them their orders."

"Yes you" Lex chuckled "and why not? You've go no records, no real background to speak of, some of these men and women, they'll know you're working for me, but that wont deter them. You'll tell them you're a double agent Ms. Wilde, working to take down the evil Lex Luthor from the inside. They'll all believe you're working for some secret government agency through the united Nations, in league with the American government. They're all patriots, so they'll eat that up."
"Of course I know what you're thinking, the American government outlawed heroes years ago. This is true, but at this moment I'm having some men in congress, men who work for me, pushing a bill that will repeal that and when I become president, which I will, I'll outlaw them again. But instead of jail time... it'll be the death penalty."
He laughed coldly "If we can get them together and doing good, it'll get the bill pushed through faster. In the long run, we'll use them to do what we need done and when the time is right, we kill them. They'll never know what hit them."
He leaned back in his chair "They're smart, so eventually one of them might figure it out. When that happens, we destroy them."

Regina smiled, if only he knew.
She'd play along with his game for now, the idea was solid enough, if the heroes had assembled before, they'd assemble again.
"I'm in."
