The universe was subjected to another crisis when the embodiment of death, Nekron, attacked using the Black Lantern Corps, an army of resurrected evil zombies wielding power rings. Every person who had ever been dead before was vulnerable to immediate zombification. Nekron, the leader of the Black Lantern Corps, revealed he was behind the crisis and that he was responsible for Superman's return to life after his death at the hands of Doomsday. Because of this, Nekron was able to effortlessly transform Superman into a Black Lantern and induct him into his evil Corps.
