"Ours is the guilt! Ours the responsibility! Ours the darkest secret of existence! We shunned him. We locked him in the pit, in the sepulchre of the abyss. Because he showed to us our true faces."
Summary
The Monitors were a race of Hyper-Gods that lived in Nil, an archetypal world in the Monitor Sphere, the highest level of existence within the Source Wall and made from the Overvoid. They were splinters of the Overmonitor, Mar Novu, that functioned as direct interfaces between Monitor-Mind the Overvoid and the DC Multiverse. Following the Final Crisis and the battle between the Thought Robot and Mandrakk the Dark Monitor, all Monitors except Nix Uotan were erased by Monitor-Mind, their story over.
