>>5401396Only Black Lanterns who were dead when they were conscripted are zombie like.
There are 3 ways of becoming a Black Lantern.
1)Rings seek out and reanimate dead bodies into the corps, making them into zombies but with a semblance of intelligence and memories of who they used to be.
2) Living being who have been dead at some point in the past and resurrected can be conscripted by a ring.
3) Bites from Black Lanterns will slowly kill the victim/turn them into a Black Lantern.
The one Pop represents is from when Black Lantern Batman was able to exploit the emotional bond the JLA had with him to allow Black Lantern rings to conscript them on the spot. The more zombie like Black Lantern Superman everyone is familiar with is actually the reanimated Earth-2 Superman.
