"Science Wonder Boy" is a boy robot character created by Chinese comic book creator Dung Fong-yung. The character is regarded as an homage to (or, perhaps less charitably, a copy of) Mitsuteru Yokoyama's classic character "Tetsujin 28."
The character apparently first appeared in the Chinese comic magazine Science Fiction Series which was published from 1966 to 1974. If the character appeared in this series monthly, then that would be about 96 appearances. But that is just a guess.
