Hank Henshaw used his half of the Oblivion Stone to set a plan in motion to regain his powers and take revenge on Superman. He started by forming a team consisting of Metallo, the Eradicator, Blanque, and Mongul. He then had them infiltrate Superman's spare Fortress in order to steal the other half of the Oblivion Stone, destroying the fortress and murdering two interdimensional refugees in the process. After Mongul attempted to usurp leadership, Henshaw used the completed stone to become Cyborg Superman once again and forced Mongul into submission. The newly restored Cyborg Superman then declared his intention to recruit Zod.
While breaking into Belle Reve Penitentiary with the Eradicator's assistance, Cyborg Superman described Pre-Flashpoint events up to his trying to destroy the Earth. After recruiting Zod, Henshaw led his team to fight Superman at his Fortress of Solitude.
However, Superman gained the help of his allies Supergirl, Super-Man, Steel, Superwoman, and Lex Luthor. Initially overwhelmed, the villains were able to defeat them by sending them into the Phantom Zone. But shortly afterwards, General Zod betrayed his so-called partners and sent Henshaw into the Phantom Zone as well; Zod only used Henshaw and his team to rescue his wife and son from the Zone. Henshaw's plans fell apart in which Superman and his allies escaped and the cyborg is indefinitely imprisoned in the Zone.
