A cloaked Borg Ship Orbit's DC Earth in the year 2005 (current day, current technology). On the Watchtower Martian Manhunter, Batman, and Jakeem Thunder are on surveilance. The Borg probe the Watchtower, which alerts J'onn and Bruce. J'onn begins to do a psychic scan of the area, but just then 200 Borg drones teleport onto the Watchtower and assimilate Batman and J'onn (before he could react and become intangible). Jakeem enters the control room and finds the Borg there. He runs to save Batman not realizing he's already been assimilated, and Batman assimilates him as well.
The Borg then send a subspace signal and 10 more cloaked cubes arrive dropping out of warp. Each cube contains 1 million Borg.
By assimilating Batman they have gained complete knowledge of all other DC Earth's superheroes and their weaknesses, Martian Manhunter gives the collective limited telepathy, as well as one super strong, super fast, shape shifting drone that can become intangible, and Jakeem as a Borg gives the collective use of magic, but not complete use.
The Borg begin beaming down to DC Earth and assimilate 20 Earthbound Military installations across the globe, as well as all military defense systems worldwide, and assimilate most major city's populations before Superman becomes aware of the situation and rounds up all of Earth's heroes to counter-attack. By this time there are 24 Million Borg and 10 Borg ships, and the Borg's numbers increase by 500,000 as each half hour goes by.
Can DC Earth's Heroe's defeat the Borg in time so that the entire populace is not assimilated?

Probably not. With Batman's knowledge of the heroes, the head start on assimilation, and all those ships at their disposal I could see the Borg easily creating quick weapons to dispose of the heroes and teleporting those they can't destroy into other dimensions.
And if all else fails, put them into the transporter buffer then destroy the patterns!

Not changing goalposts, per se. I never specified that the Queen was or was not on the ships, which was my mistake (didn't cross my mind). The Queen is not always physically present when the Borg attack. From what I've read, her components are on every ship in the Borg Collective so that if necessary she can be physically present (basically, she can assemble her body on any ship in the collective and download her individual consciousness into the unit).
For the sake of this thead, she's not physically present, as in, on the 10 ships attacking DC Earth, the Queen unit is not assembled, but in the hive mind her presence is always there due to the mind link.
Think Imperiex's probes only not nearly as powerful.

with the assimilation of the 3 JLA early on Superman is negated the Borg adapt and are firing red sun radiation Wavelengths from some weapons banks. I like Spectre in Space the concept amuses me. Almost as much as drones trying to hit Superman or Flash lol. They are very slow.

Whirly is right, Borg drones walk very slowly, but they have adaptive forcefields, aerial support from the Cubes, and no problem letting a few thousand die to complete a collective goal...
Yup. Xavier with a phaser rifle can do it, so Supes should kick their asses lol!
Thinking of Borg tech - if they have Bat's knowledge of Supes, it's reasonable to assume that they could fire K-Nite or red sun radiation to take him out.
But the Flash? There's nothing at all they could do to stop him...

What would Flash do to them? They have shielding and warp technology, as well as technology to create subspace singularities and surpass Warp Factor Speed (from an Episode of TNG when Lure, Data's brother, had taken over a Borg Ship), and time travel ability (ST:First Contact film). They also have knowledge of Flash's abilities (Bruce-Waynius of Borg).
Shielding only works against energy attacks. Hence Data can rip Drones a new one and so can Worf with his Bat'Leth.
Warpspeed and Transwarp Speed aren't gonna help the individual drones... and I can't see Flash engaging a starship in fisticuffs lol.
He could deliver a hypersonic punch to dozens of drones every second. He won't be able to defeat anywhere near all of them, but he could clear an area quite quick.
And the GLs... don't get me started.... Hal could play dice with Borg Cubes lol...

Yeah, but the giant hand would be made out of a specific energy (Oan Battery) which the Borg can adapt to. It would only work until they adapted their shields to it, which would not take long, but maybe long enough for a lantern to take out a Borg Cube. Borg Cubes can take a LOT of damage and regenerate, so they'd have to act quick. Kyle and John could hold them off for a while, but eventually they'd be almost useless.
And to keep it fair, The Borg have not assimilated any other powerful DC races. Just humans and other Star Trek races, plus Batman, Martian Manhunter, and Jakeem Thunder so far. They could assimilate other vulnerable DC characters as the battle progressed.
Supes and SuperGirl would be immune to assimilation due to their biomatrix forcefields, but only for the time being until the Borg began using Batman's knowledge of their weaknesses to certain types of energy frequencies and exploited it. The Lantern's could erect forcefields for a while until the Borg adapted to the energy signature of their rings. Captain Atom, since he's sentient energy in a containment suit, would not be able to be assimilated, but he could have his suit destroyed, etc.
