I always assumed this series was meant to show a more post-Crisis-ish Superman (given it's the first animated series made after Byrne's reboot, and the Superman-Photo-Album flashbacks seemed more post-Crisis than pre-Crisis in tone to me [no Superboy])... though I haven't seen it in years.
The series ran for one season only on CBS in 1988-89.
Not really the Byrne S.I.N.O didn't have any powers growing up and was born on Earth NOT Krypton. Clearly that is not the case here. The film version had a bigger impact on this series than his Man of Steel comics
