Superboy: The TV Series

SUPERBOY: The Comic Book

In Febuarary of 1989, only one year after 'Superboy: The TV series' hit the airwaves, 'Superboy: The Comic Book' hit the newstands. It would be based entirely on the show, but would tackle all-new adventures. Its' intent was to explore some of the unseen tales and events that a 26 half-hour episode a year could not do. It would answer vital questions about the show as well, like what was the first day at Shuster University like for Clark Kent? Or, what happened to T.J. White after his dismiss for the second season? Like the TV show, 'Superboy: The Comic Book' would fill in gaps and protray Superboy in such a way that would fit with the Superman Mythos as suggested by the Superman movie producers (also the producers of the 'Superboy' TV series) Alexander and Ilya Salkind. However, just like the TV program, 'Superboy: The Comic Book' did not fit into the current Superman titles, nor did it follow the storyline in the Christopher Reeve Superman movies. It had its own origin, so one must suspend a different belief in order to enjoy the TV series or its' comic book. Surely, this is no chore. 'Superboy: The Comic Book' endured publication for two years, had excellent writing and artwork, and eventually found its' end in 1992 when the show wrapped. So if you were lucky enough to witness the TV show during its' air back in 1988-1992, then you'll love 'Superboy: The Comic Book'! Enjoy!
