Starro

Starro (a.k.a. Starro the Conqueror) is a strange alien creature resembling a giant starfish that can fly and travel in deep space. It appears to only hunger for universal conquest.

Background Information
On the parallel universe, known as Earth-One, in 1960, Starro arrives on Earth and places the residents of Happy Harbor and Rhode Island under its mental control. Justice League heroes Aquaman; the Flash; Green Lantern; Martian Manhunter and Wonder Woman work together to defeat the alien, eventually coating it (at the suggestion of Snapper Carr) with quicklime, which nullifies its' abilities.

Several years later, it is learned that a segment of Starro had survived. It was able to regenerate into a complete creature, but is stopped by Aquaman before it is able to renew its' plan of conquest.

SuperFriends Comic Book Continuity
By 1976, the JLA had a wax figure of Starro in the Hall of Justice.
