Captain Nice is an American comedy television series that ran from January 9, 1967 to August 28, 1967, Monday nights at 8:30 pm EST on NBC, opposite ABC's The Rat Patrol and CBS's The Lucy Show. The show was an unsuccessful attempt to cash in on the 1966 smash hit ABC TV version of Batman.[1] A similar series on CBS, Mr. Terrific, also aired on Monday nights that season in the 8 pm EST time slot.
A single-issue comic book adaptation was published by Gold Key Comics in November 1967. Reruns of Captain Nice aired on Ha! (Comedy Central) in 1991.
