The Order of the Black Sun was a group that waged a time war against the Time Lords, the first time war that the latter group ever fought.

Membership

Several different species, some humanoid, others only vaguely humanoid, made up the Order. They wore capes and black unitards with a logo on them. (COMIC: 4-D War, Black Sun Rising) They used hand-held black orbs as the focus for blasts of power. (COMIC: 4-D War)
