is a Japanese monthly manga magazine published by Shogakukan,[3] starting in May 1976. Its main target is preschool-aged boys. It features super heroes such as Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Ultraman and Metal Hero, all of whom have gone on to be cultural phenomena in Japan.
The name is a portmanteau of televi, short for television, and kun, a Japanese honorific for small children, mainly young boys.
