Many years later following the destruction of Krypton, Nadira and Az-Rel were part of a massive escape attempt from the Phantom Zone. While their leader, General Zod, and several of his associates prepared to displace the Earth into the Phantom Zone in revenge against Superman, Nadira and Az-Rel sought simple pleasures on Earth.
