Powers: Zor-El, like all Kryptonians, gained superhuman powers while under a yellow sun.

History:

(Blackest Night: Superman #1-3) - Zor-El resurrected as part of the Black Lantern Corps. He was charged with ripping out the hearts of those emotionally affected by their resurrection, gathering their emotions and using them to help Nekron return and end life in the universe. He confronted Supergirl and Alura, and asked Alura for a kiss. Zor-El promised to destroy Kandor, because he didn't like the direction it was headed, but Supergirl fought past her feelings toward him and fought him. A Kandorian scientist analyzed Zor-El's Black Lantern ring, and developed a ray that could generate a counter-energy field that would keep the Black Lanterns off planet. He was reluctant to deploy it because Superman was off-planet, visiting Earth, but Alura told him to deploy it anyway. Alura helped Supergirl send Zor-El off-planet and activated the field.
