This Superboy series began in 1990 and falls outside of the main DC storyline as it is based on the live action TV program that ran for four seasons, from 1988 to 1992. As such, this series is not considered as Volume 2 of the Superboy comic book series even though it is technically the second series of comics to be titled Superboy. The TV series outlasted the comic book series which ran for 23 issues, including one "Special" issue. The cover of the 1st issue of the comic book series is shown as Superboy the Comic Book, however it is listed on the inside credits simply as Superboy. The title of the comic was changed for issue 11 to The Adventures of Superboy, which is not to be confused with The New Adventures of Superboy. This comic series was followed by a third Superboy series in 1994.
