Author Topic: Adventure Comics sales...Superboy? Ultra Jorge Himself alone posted                        I know at one point it seemed the Legion started becoming more popular than Superboy. But in the Adventures days this wasn' the case was it? Wasn't Superboy a big draw for DC? I was just wondering. Thanks.

They really were fun as were all the superhero comics in the 50's and 60's. They weren't too serious - you knew everything would turn out all right in the end - which was nice and reassuring for a kid.

I'll look and see if I can find a 1967 Superboy with the circulation data, but I'm willing to bet the entire longbox that books in that the numbers will come in lower than Adventure's sales.
