The Light want to force Humanity to evolve and reastablish survival of the fitest. Best way to do that is to make the Justice League the enemy and force humanity to face countless threats fromt he stars. Lex gets to turn humanity into the enemy of all other setient life in the universe, Savage gets to push humanity forward, Ra's gets to rule a super powerful empire born from war. That is the light in a nut shell; different villians wanting different things but useing a single plan that suits them all.

I admit their is alot more they could have done with the characters from season one, But you also want to keep things fresh since this is technicly a show as much for Kids as Adults. I'm looking forward to seeing what happened over the last five years, whether it shows those events or not, the characters' current conditions should tell the tale.
