Question Regarding Superman's Legacy Numbering

[Dominick1216]

Last year, Superman celebrated its 800th issue. As far as legacy numbering goes, it's:

Superman Vol. 1 (#1-#423)
?????? (#424-#649)
Superman Vol. 1 (#650-#714)
Superman Vol. 3 (#715-#766)
Superman Vol. 4 (#766-#800)

Now, my question is which series is counted as part of the legacy numbering, Adventures of Superman Vol. 1 or Superman Vol. 2? Both have the same amount issues that lead to it being issues #424-#649 in the legacy numbering, but which series is the one that is counted in the numbering?

It seems they've ommitted Superman Vol 2. Adventures is technically part of the legacy numbering.

Yeah, I think at the time DC explained it as they canceled Superman Vol. 2 and renamed (or reverted) Adventures of Superman to Superman again. The reverse happened after COIE with Superman Vol. 1 continuing into Adventures of Superman and Bryne getting Superman Vol. 2

I always thought it was ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN, but if both titles had the same amount of issues then you could just consider that SUPERMAN (a la Superman Red and Superman Blue) split off into two entities that co-existed and then came back together again to form one SUPERMAN title.

This is my understanding as well. Superman Vol. 2 taking the name was, if I remember correctly, one of the demands on Byrne's list. But Adventures was the continuation of the original book, which is why it kept the original numbering.
