Been cleaning up this article. I think it reads at least a little better now... And a new image would also help things look less... Skanky... -- Avengers fan 20:05, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

How's the new one? --DrBat 01:17, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


Wait a tic, I'm not terribly up to date on comics, but wasn't Cap's original triangular shield destroyed by Mister Hyde during the Mansion Siege by the Masters of Evil, way back in, oh, the late eighties, around Avengers #270-277 or so? How would Elijah have Cap's original, bulletproof shield? DoctorWorm7 05:34, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

It was. Cap later used a similar triangular shield after Heroes Return, it was a reproduction, it was destroyed by a Kree soldier. I believe he had yet another reproduction before switching to a photonic shield. It was revealed in issues of Black Panther that Cap had a triangular shield even earlier than the one destroyed by Hyde, and it was given as a gift to Panther's father. Patriot found a triangular shield in the Avengers Mansion, the assumption is that it was one of the bulletproof shields used by Cap prior to the photonic shield. That shield was later returned to Cap. The shield Patriot currently uses was given to him by Kate. She's rich though, so maybe it's made out of some tough material. -Kevingarcia 08:30, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
On that note, I added "a replica of" in the bit about the shield and added a reference to the throwing stars he used in the first story arc (and still, apparently, carries). I called them "throwing stars" since they are obviously intended to look like stars from Old Glory and not Japanese in origin (thus, not Shuriken). Feel free to correct that though. -Kevingarcia 07:04, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Anyone else noticing weirdness with the superhero box? The relatives aren't showing up. --Basique 11:59, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
