Superboy, alias Conner Kent, is a clone of Superman in the Young Justice television series. He first appears in the premiere episode "Independence Day," but late in the episode, as an experiment conducted by Project Cadmus. He was engineered to replace Superman in the event of the hero falling or otherwise becoming compromised. He was being psychically "educated," and when he decided to join the "sidekicks" of Justice League heroes Aquaman (Aqualad), Batman (Robin), and The Flash (Kid Flash), he attempted to form a connection with Superman, but the hero was initially reluctant to acknowledge Superboy.

As of the second season, Young Justice: Invasion, Superboy and Superman now get along, following a five-year gap between the first and second seasons. The reasonings behind their changed relationship have not been shown as of August 2012.
