Who's Who in the Superman Comics

Mr Z

Mr. Z

This mysterious immortal tried to add Superman to a collection of souls trapped within a gemstone, but Superman's strong will and alien body enabled him to escape and free the gem's other souls. Following this encounter, when Superman was sent through time by a Linear Man, he encountered Mr. Z acting as a WWII German officer. The remains of his gemstone are presumed destroyed within Superman's Fortress and Mr. Z was left suffering from amnesia on a south pacific island, after trying to stop Superman. Other than he can return to life after being killed, and can mesmerize people, not much else is known about this figure.

First Appearance: SUP #51 (Jan. 1991)
