This episode featured Superboy's first public appearance as he prevents a group of saboteurs from selling a powerful laser weapon developed by the U.S. government to an arms dealer. "Countdown to Nowhere" aired in two versions: an "uncut" version in which the story plays in the present day and a second version in which the main story is introduced as a flashback through two additional scenes with Lana, Clark and T.J. The second version contained some scenes cut from the main story in order to fit the flashback lead-ins into the episode. This episode is the first episode of the series chronologically, but was the fifth one that was aired in most markets. It also appears as the fifth episode on the first season DVD set. The first season's story editor was <a href="/wiki/Fred_Freiberger" title="Fred Freiberger">Fred Freiberger</a>, who also scripted a few episodes. </p><p>The first thirteen episodes of <i>Superboy</i> were rather crude compared to later episodes. The producers, not sure whether any additional episodes would be ordered, did their best to save money on the first thirteen. As a result, the special effects are a bit rougher and the episodes have a grittier, real-world feel to them. This brought about more character-oriented stories and stories with more ordinary villains like drug dealers and crime bosses. </p><p>After thirteen additional episodes were ordered for the first season, special effects improved and the show took on a more professional look. More fantastic enemies were introduced, such as an unnamed gaseous alien, who could possess the bodies of others in "The Alien Solution", a life-force vampire in "Succubus" and long-time Superman villain <a href="/wiki/Mister_Mxyzptlk" title="Mister Mxyzptlk">Mister Mxyzptlk</a> (guest star <a href="/wiki/Michael_J._Pollard" title="Michael J. Pollard">Michael J. Pollard</a>) in "Meet Mr. Mxyzptlk". </p><p>Superboy's nemesis, <a href="/wiki/Lex_Luthor" title="Lex Luthor">Lex Luthor</a>, was introduced in "The Jewel of Techechal" (the first episode broadcast) as Clark's classmate at Shuster University. This version of Luthor was more interested in fixing basketball games and humiliating Superboy than anything else. But the season one finale, "Luthor Unleashed", completely changed his character. This episode adapted Lex Luthor's <a href="/wiki/Silver_Age_of_Comic_Books" title="Silver Age of Comic Books">silver age</a> comic book origin, in which Superboy rescues Lex from a lab accident that causes him to lose all of his hair, becoming the familiar bald villain Superman fans have come to recognize. Luthor blames Superboy for his hair loss and gains a new, more intense hatred for the Boy of Steel. From this point on in the series, Luthor is determined to destroy Superboy, rather than just humiliate him. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Season_2">Season 2</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Season 2"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the second season, drastic changes took place.

In an interview with The Superman Homepage, Newton stated, "It was my choice to leave the Superboy series. The producers asked me back repeatedly.

The change in Luthor's appearance was explained in the second season opener "With This Ring, I Thee Kill". The two-part episode revealed Luthor had plastic surgery to assume the appearance of Warren Eckworth, the wealthy inventor of the "Superboy Gun", which Luthor believed could kill Superboy. The character of T.J. White was written out of the series (he went to work for the <i><a href="/wiki/Daily_Planet" title="Daily Planet">Daily Planet</a></i>) and Andy McCalister, portrayed by <a href="/wiki/Ilan_Mitchell-Smith" title="Ilan Mitchell-Smith">Ilan Mitchell-Smith</a>, became Clark's new roommate. Andy was very different from T.J. and was constantly looking to make money with his get-rich-quick schemes. He also flirted with Lana frequently and his advances were always refused, though Lana did consider Andy a friend. </p><p>The villains were amped up in the second season, as additional comic book characters were introduced to the series, many of them appearing for the first time in live-action. <a href="/wiki/Metallo" title="Metallo">Metallo</a> (<a href="/wiki/Michael_Callan" title="Michael Callan">Michael Callan</a>), <a href="/wiki/Bizarro" title="Bizarro">Bizarro</a> (Barry Meyers) as well as the <a href="/wiki/Yellow_Peri" title="Yellow Peri">Yellow Peri</a> (<a href="/wiki/Elizabeth_Keifer" title="Elizabeth Keifer">Elizabeth Keifer</a>) appeared in the second season and <a href="/wiki/Mister_Mxyzptlk" title="Mister Mxyzptlk">Mister Mxyzptlk</a> (Pollard) made a return appearance. <a href="/wiki/Gilbert_Gottfried" title="Gilbert Gottfried">Gilbert Gottfried</a> appeared in two episodes as a nasty, wisecracking criminal genius named "Nick Knack" who used toys to commit crimes (a reference to the <a href="/wiki/Toyman" title="Toyman">Toyman</a>). Another character was a <a href="/wiki/Dhampir" title="Dhampir">dhampir</a> who found a way through a serum to gain human abilities such as repelling his craving for blood and gaining a tolerance for sunlight. Thus, he became a friend of both Superboy and Lana but would become villainous if doing without the serum for too long. <a href="/wiki/Philip_Michael_Thomas" title="Philip Michael Thomas">Philip Michael Thomas</a> also made an appearance as a medieval alchemist who survived into modern times in order to battle a sorcerer spreading plague, and aided Superboy when he was infected by said disease.

The show's title officially became <i>The Adventures of Superboy</i> and the setting shifted from Shuster University to The Bureau for Extra-Normal Matters in Capitol City, Florida, where Clark and Lana were interns. The Bureau is depicted as a government agency which investigates paranormal activities and aliens, including Superboy (this format change pre-dates the concept of the television series <i><a href="/wiki/The_X-Files" title="The X-Files">The X-Files</a></i>). </p><p>Andy McCalister was dropped from the series, though <a href="/wiki/Ilan_Mitchell-Smith" title="Ilan Mitchell-Smith">Ilan Mitchell-Smith</a> would make a final guest appearance in the episode "Special Effects", which explained his disappearance by saying that Andy went to intern at a movie studio. The new supporting cast consisted of Clark and Lana's co-worker at the Bureau, Matt Ritter (Peter Jay Fernandez) and the Bureau chief C. Dennis Jackson (Robert Levine). </p><p>The tone of the series changed dramatically as darker stories were produced and the overall look of the series took on many characteristics of <a href="/wiki/Film_noir" title="Film noir">film noir</a>. A few journalists at the time suggested that this darker look was largely due to the success of <a href="/wiki/Tim_Burton" title="Tim Burton">Tim Burton</a>'s <i><a href="/wiki/Batman_(1989_film)" title="Batman (1989 film)">Batman</a></i> movie from a year prior. Many stories dealt with more mature themes, a change new producer Julia Pistor implemented. In "Rebirth", Superboy is confronted with the possibility that he may have accidentally taken a human life and gives up his Superboy identity in guilt. "Carnival" shows a demonic individual named 'Deville' trying to acquire Superboy's eternal soul by tempting him to give in and kill a man who is implied to be a rapist. "Mindscape" deals with Superboy's deepest fears as an alien life-form brings those fears to life in Superboy's nightmares while simultaneously draining his life energy. "Roads Not Taken" shows the different paths Superboy's life may have taken, as Superboy travels to alternate earths where his life is very different. He meets a version of himself who killed Luthor in a fit of rage and another who has become a despotic ruler of earth. The alternate version of Superboy who took Luthor's life was shown wearing a black leather jacket and sunglasses which bears some resemblance to the Conner Kent version of Superboy as he first appeared in the "<a href="/wiki/Death_of_Superman" class="mw-redirect" title="Death of Superman">Death of Superman</a>" storyline. The third season ended with the two-part episode "The Road to Hell" with former TV <a href="/wiki/Tarzan_(NBC_series)" class="mw-redirect" title="Tarzan (NBC series)">Tarzan</a> <a href="/wiki/Ron_Ely" title="Ron Ely">Ron Ely</a> guest-starring as an adult, retired Man of Steel from an alternate reality. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Season_4">Season 4</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Season 4"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The fourth season maintained the darker look and feel of the third one and was the first in which no major cast changes took place. <a href="/wiki/Noel_Neill" title="Noel Neill">Noel Neill</a> and <a href="/wiki/Jack_Larson" title="Jack Larson">Jack Larson</a> made guest appearances in the episode "Paranoia" as employees of the Bureau for Extra-Normal Matters.

The trend of more mature stories also continued in episodes such as "To Be Human", in which Bizarro becomes human, only to be forced to give up his humanity to save Superboy's life and "Into the Mystery", in which a mystical, ghostly woman, apparently an angel of death, leads Superboy to his dying aunt's bedside. A memorable Luthor tale, "Know Thine Enemy", appeared in this season, featuring Superboy re-living Luthor's tortured memories of childhood via "psychodisk" while Luthor threatened to destroy all life on Earth. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Series_end">Series end</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Series end"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1991, higher-ups at DC had begun to conceive a new, more modern Superman series based on <a href="/wiki/John_Byrne_(comics)" title="John Byrne (comics)">John Byrne</a>'s 1986 reset of the comic's canon, a move that resulted in Clark Kent never becoming Superboy. DC President <a href="/wiki/Jenette_Kahn" title="Jenette Kahn">Jenette Kahn</a> began work with Warner Bros. executives <a href="/wiki/Deborah_Joy_LeVine" title="Deborah Joy LeVine">Deborah Joy LeVine</a> and <a href="/wiki/Les_Moonves" title="Les Moonves">Les Moonves</a> on the series. Meanwhile, in the fall of that year, <i>Superboy</i> began its fourth and final season with the intention of continuing the story through a series of telefilms. The final episode, which was to be called "Obituary For a Superhero", would end on a cliffhanger with Superboy's fate unknown; the telefilms would see his return and bring the series to a conclusion. </p><p>However, before production could begin on the intended finale, <a href="/wiki/American_Broadcasting_Company" title="American Broadcasting Company">ABC</a> agreed to take on the new Superman series that had been in development at Warner Bros.; although <i><a href="/wiki/Lois_%26_Clark:_The_New_Adventures_of_Superman" title="Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman">Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman</a></i> would not debut on television until the following season, Warner Bros. contacted the Salkinds and informed them that their Superman licenses would be cancelled at the end of the 1991-92 television season. This decision forced the writers of <i>Superboy</i> to come up with a definitive finale to close out the fourth season, since Warner Bros.' decision meant that the planned series of telefilms would have to be scrapped. "Obituary for a Superhero" was rewritten and aired on April 26, 1992. The final episode, titled "Rites of Passage", aired in two parts on May 10 and 17, 1992, and featured a story where Clark faced the potential of losing his superpowers and never becoming Superman. </p><p>Afterward, Alexander and Ilya decided to challenge Warner Bros. in court over the termination of their licensing agreement, eventually reaching a settlement in 2005. As per the terms of the settlement, Warner Bros. retained all of the rights to the past and future <i>Superman</i> franchise television series and films with the exception of <i>Superman IV</i>, which at the time had its rights owned by <a href="/wiki/Paramount_Pictures" title="Paramount Pictures">Paramount Pictures</a> through its acquisition of the assets of the now-defunct Cannon Group (those rights have since passed to Warner Bros.). As far as <i>Superboy</i> was concerned, the Salkinds and Warner Bros. agreed to divide the ownership of the series three ways. As of 2023, those rights are shared between Ilya Salkind, <a href="/wiki/StudioCanal" title="StudioCanal">StudioCanal</a>, <a href="/wiki/Paramount_Global" title="Paramount Global">Paramount Global</a>, and Warner Bros.; in the former two instances, Ilya inherited Alexander's stake in the production after he died in 1997, while StudioCanal purchased the Salkinds' production company following its dissolution. In the latter two, Paramount Global's distribution arm, <a href="/wiki/CBS_Media_Ventures" title="CBS Media Ventures">CBS Media Ventures</a>, holds the rights to distribute reruns of <i>Superboy</i> in the United States while Warner Bros. holds international distribution rights as well as worldwide home video distribution rights.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Main">Main</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Main"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/John_Newton_(actor)" title="John Newton (actor)">John Haymes Newton</a> (season 1) and <a href="/wiki/Gerard_Christopher" title="Gerard Christopher">Gerard Christopher</a> (season 2–4) as <a href="/wiki/Superboy" title="Superboy">Kal-El / Clark Kent / Superboy</a><sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Stacy_Haiduk" title="Stacy Haiduk">Stacy Haiduk</a> as <a href="/wiki/Lana_Lang" title="Lana Lang">Lana Lang</a><sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ilan_Mitchell-Smith" title="Ilan Mitchell-Smith">Ilan Mitchell-Smith</a> (season 2; guest: season 3) as Andy McCalister<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li>Jim Calvert (season 1) as Trevor Jenkins "T.J."

After issue #11, the series changed its cover title to <i>The Adventures of Superboy</i> as the TV series itself had changed titles starting with season three, and the change was reflected in the comic book's indicia beginning with #18.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The series was published monthly until it went bi-monthly for its final three issues, remained in publication for 22 issues to the end of 1991 (cover dated Feb. 1992), and a concluding one issue special in 1992. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Home_media">Home media</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: Home media"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Bootleg_VHS_and_DVDs">Bootleg VHS and DVDs</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Bootleg VHS and DVDs"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Some time after the series' cancellation, there was a dispute over what rights to the character the Salkinds actually owned. For a time this prevented any official <a href="/wiki/Home_video" title="Home video">home video</a> release of the series.

Each video tape featured four selected episodes from Seasons 3 and 4. A fourth VHS video tape was released by Christopher in 2002. Christopher sold these video tapes on his website by mail order and at personal appearances when attending various <a href="/wiki/Comic_book_convention" title="Comic book convention">comic book conventions</a> and shows. </p><p>In response to overwhelming fan demand, Christopher decided to offer all <i>Superboy</i> episodes on DVD, offering a complete Season 2 set on DVD in early June 2004 and planned to sell complete sets of Seasons 3 and 4 in the future. When <a href="/wiki/Warner_Home_Video" class="mw-redirect" title="Warner Home Video">Warner Home Video</a> announced the official release of Season 1, Christopher announced that his self-produced DVD sets would no longer be available on his website in 2005, with the planned DVD releases for Seasons 3 and 4 cancelled. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Aftermath_of_the_first_legal_battle">Aftermath of the first legal battle</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Superboy_(TV_series)&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Aftermath of the first legal battle"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In an interview for the webpage supermanhomepage.com, Salkind revealed that the legal battle between the three companies involved in the series' production (Viacom, Warner Bros. and the Salkinds) was the reason the show was not re-run on television or released to home video.
