The Controllers are a fictional extraterrestrial race existing in the DC Universe. They first appear in Adventure Comics #357 (June 1967), and were created by Jim Shooter, Mort Weisinger, and Curt Swan.[1]
In their initial appearance, the Controllers originate from another dimension that was ravaged by war and seek to protect the main universe from the same fate.[2] They use their mind-control abilities to prevent intergalactic war, but also create powerful weapons, including the Sun-Eaters, gaseous beings that can devour whole planets and stars; and the Miracle Machine, a device that can turn any thought into reality.[3] In some depictions, the Time Trapper is a renegade Controller.[4][5]
In post-Crisis on Infinite Earths continuity, the Controllers are part of the Guardians of the Universe before separating from them due to their differing morals. Additionally, they create the Darkstars, an intergalactic peacekeeping force, and experiment on Martyn Van Wyck, transforming him into Effigy.
In Blackest Night, Larfleeze kills several Controllers and assimilates them into the Orange Lantern Corps.[6][7]
In the DC Rebirth relaunch, the Controllers are on the brink of extinction, and kidnap the Guardians of the Universe to transform them into Controllers.[8][9][10]
Similar to the Guardians of the Universe, the Controllers are immortal and possess vast psionic powers, including telepathy, telekinesis, and energy manipulation. The Controllers also have vast knowledge, which allows them to create advanced technology and weapons. Their most known weapons are the Sun-Eater, Miracle Machine, and the Darkstar exo-mantle.
A Controller appears in Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters.
