If you look at the Light's inner circle, you'll see they're all leaders. They all front formidable organizations, unlike the Injustice League, which were just heavyhitters (okay, Black Adam is a leader, and Vertigo perhaps, but it stops there).


 * Kimiyo? Neither a heavyhitter nor a leader (neither is Arthur, of course). Just a bitch, from time to time.
 * Deathstroke: also not a leader. He's an obvious Crisis inspired choice, but he'd be more useful as an operative.
 * Max... he doesn't have to be Brainiac-controlled, he's plenty evil as it is. He could work.
 * Libra would be obvious, again, Crisis related. He'd be an agent of Apokalips, without much storytelling weight.
 * Great White Shark? A c-list crime lord fighting for the scraps of Gotham? Why would the rest of the Light even want him, and not Black Mask? Shark's been Mask's lap dog for a long time anyway.
 * Warp... he's not a leader. He's a teleporting common thief. His skills make him an operative, not a leader.


 * I'm surprised at the (apparently) small role of Kobra. He would fit the bill for a leader.
 * Calculator... maybe as an agent for Lex. He's more resource than leader.
