- Kryptonian Elder to Non before the sentencing.

Character Biography
Non, Zod, and Ursa were convicted of their crimes of treason in Superman the movie, and were sentenced to eternal imprisonment in the Phantom Zone, drifting into space. However, in Superman II, the explosion of a hydrogen bomb sent into space by Superman shattered the Phantom Zone and released the three criminals. They went to Earth, and during a brief stop at the moon they discovered they had the same powers as Superman, such as super strength, the ability to fly, and eye lasers, which Non at first could not do, but when he got the hang of it, he used them repeatedly.

Superman fought Non first of the gang, and they were evenly matched, but Non took quite a bit of damage during the battle, being knocked into a tower and having it placed on him by Superman. Eventually, Zod and his gang were led to Superman's fortress of solitude by Lex Luthor, who double crossed Superman and told Zod about a device to take away Kryptonians' powers. Zod made Superman enter and had Luthor turn it on, however, Superman had switched the device around so it would take away the power of anyone outside, and not affect those inside. Zod, Ursa, and Non lost all their powers. After Superman threw Zod into a crevice, Non tried to fly at Superman, but without any of his powers he fell into another icy abyss to his doom. But when Superman turns back time to avoid the devastation of the planet, Non and the others are re-imprisons in the Phantom Zone.
