The Adventures of Captain Africa (1955) is a Columbia serial starring John Hart. It was originally intended to be a sequel to The Phantom (starring Tom Tyler) but, due to problems with the licensing rights to the character, it was re-filmed and re-named into a new story with a new hero who still bears a strong resemblance to the The Phantom in both appearance and behavior.

The serial was produced by legendary Hollywood cheapskate Sam Katzman.

The serial is today available on VHS, but have so far not experienced a DVD release.
