ControllersThe Controllers are a fictional extraterrestrial race existing in the DC Universe. They were originally part of the race called Malthusians or Oans. When the Oans felt responsible for the catastrophic effects on the universe that the experiment one of their own, the renegade scientist Krona, had performed, they argued how to handle the situation. (Note: in the original version of the story, this experiment was supposed to have created evil itself.) Some Oans wanted to dedicate their immortal existences to contain evil; This group eventually became the Guardians of the Universe. Another group decided instead that it should be destroyed. This group left, eventually becoming The Controllers. (A later version of the story claims the controllers left over the Guardians decision to stop using their robot minions, the Manhunters.) Just as the Guardians slowly changed their physical appearances over billions of years of existence, so did the Controllers. Originally, all Oans were blue-skinned humanoids; currently, the Controllers are pink-skinned and hairless. The Controllers moved to another dimension, and dedicated themselves to creating weapons that could be used to destroy evil beings if they became too dangerous. Among these are 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. Note that the Miracle Machine was too uncontrollable at first, so The Controllers avoided using it. In recent times, The Controllers stablished their own corps of interstellar peacekeepers to compete with the Guardians' (The Green Lantern Corps) called the Darkstars. Many former members of the Corps joined the Darkstars after the Corps were destroyed. In the future of the Legion of Super Heroes, a renegade Controller became the villain known as the Time Trapper (thought this has been rewritten since.) The Controllers also ended up giving the Miracle Machine to the Legion for safekeeping.
