Background:
Once an artifact of an extant alien race survived by a nameless alien Cleric, the Eradicator was reprogrammed on ancient Krypton by the scientist Kem-L, an ancestor of Superman who empowered it to cleanse Krypton of all alien influences. In the reaches of deep space, Superman later encountered the Cleric, who had departed Krypton with the Eradicator long before that planet's cataclysmic destruction. In Superman's possession, the Eradicator erected the Fortress of Solitude and, for a brief time, altered the Man of Steel into an "ideal" Kryptonian. The Eradicator's programming reconfigured even further when the psychic wave patterns it shared with the House of El allowed the Eradicator to assume Kal-El's form after the Man of Steel's "death" at the hands of Doomsday. Following Superman's return to life, the still-evolving Eradicator melded its techno-consciousness to the soul of the dying Dr. David Connor, who now balances his own human consciousness with the latent directives of the Kryptonian killing machine.
