Identity Crisis'
The controversial 2004 miniseries Identity Crisis revealed that Doctor Light had, at some point in the past, brutally raped Sue Dibny, the wife of the superhero Elongated Man (subsequently, later issues in the DCU have revealed that he was a serial rapist, and Light has stated that Dibny was not his first victim). After taking a vote, the League resolved to alter his mind through the use of Zatanna's magic so that Light would no longer pose a threat to their loved ones. In the process, they accidentally gave him a partial lobotomy (thus explaining how he fell from being a plausible foe of the Justice League to a punching bag for the Teen Titans). He later recovered his memories and intellect, and vowed revenge against the Justice League. Fear of such lobotomies was a motivating factor behind the The Society, a large villainous organization headed by Lex Luthor. Dr. Light himself was one of the first recruits.
