Fictional character biography

John Starr

John Starr is a brilliant scientist who turns to crime after the project he works for is shut down. He invents a time-manipulating hourglass and becomes a supervillain.[2][3][4]

After an encounter with Epoch, Starr is stuck in a temporal loop due to the Zero Hour event affecting reality.[5] He eventually escapes before being killed by Mister Mind.[6] In Absolute Power, Amanda Waller resurrects Time Commander and uses his hourglass to give her Amazo army self-healing abilities.[7]

Sterling Fry

Sterling Fry is a student of John Starr who succeeds him as Time Commander following his death. However, he is seemingly killed after being exposed to his hourglass' tachyons.[8][9]

Powers and abilities

Time Commander's hourglass allows him to control time, allowing him to travel through time, move objects or beings through time and manipulate time in various ways.
