Rinol-Jag

A humanoid alien of the planet Salitar, a world completely demolished by an asteroid fragment of the destroyed planet Krypton that was hurtling through space. Rinol-Jag is in a space capsule destined for Salitar's moon at the time, and is left the only survivor of the planet. Rescued from the moon by the space pirate Amalak, Rinol-Jag is brainwashed by the villain who secretly seeks revenge on Superman. Now with a burning hatred for all things Kryptonian, Rinol-Jag is given the means by Amalak to take revenge on the survivors of the planet Krypton. Rinol-Jag arrives on Earth-1 and goes about destroying relics of the destroyed planet and abducts the bottle city of Kandor, Krypto, and eventually Supergirl, by luring her into a trap baited with her kidnapped adoptive parents Fred and Edna Danvers. Meanwhile, Amalak plans to take advantage of the Man of Steel's distraction by destroying Earth with an elaborate bomb.

Eventually, when Superman confronts Rinol-Jag on his asteroid base, the two aliens join forces to stop Amalak's plans after Rinol-Jag learns of his psychological manipulation. With the space pirate defeated and delivered to a space prison, Rinol-Jag makes his peace with the Kryptonians and departs in a ship to settle elsewhere in space.
