General Zod was a Kryptonian warrior.
History
Zod's consciousness was one of the many stored in the Eradicator before the destruction of Krypton. His friend Zeta-Rho sent his son Tal-Rho to Earth ahead of the Eradicator, planning to use it to recreate Krypton on Earth.
Tal-Rho eventually found the Eradicator, and used it to transfer Zod's mind into Superman's body. He battled John Henry Irons, but Irons was able to reach Superman and Superman destroyed Zod's consciousness within himself.[1]
