Who wins?
Fight 1. With prep ...................Fight 2. With no prep
Reed still defeats Atom, though mostly it could go either way. Ray is the person everyone goes to if they need something built. Time Machines, special weapons, etc...
Brainiac 5 is the best intellect DC has. Put him in, but then it's not a perfect fit.
Wasn't there an actual dc illuminati? They were the ones who secretly performed lobotomies on villains? Batman was surprised to find out about them and such?

I think that was more like a hastily assembled conspiracy within the JLA that got in over its head. DC Earth isn't like Marvel in the sense that power tends to be concentrated in fewer hands. Likely you'd see a villainous Illumnati seeing as DC heroes are a little more out in the open than Marvel heroes are.
A villain Illumnati would feature guys like Vandal Savage, Sivana, Lex Luthor, Black Adam, Circe, and Black Mask. Really it would be like a condensed Injustice Society.
