Captain America's Shield

Captain America's shield is a fictional weapon appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. It is the primary defensive and offensive piece of equipment used by and emblematic of Captain America. It is composed of proto-adamantium, a never-duplicated combination of vibranium, steel alloy, and an unknown catalyst. It is virtually indestructible under normal conditions. While cosmic, magical or godly opponents have broken the shield, the shield has absorbed Hulk's blows, repelled Thor's mystical hammer Mjölnir and deflected adamantium blades without visible damage. This material absorbs kinetic energy, transferring very little and thus preventing Captain America from feeling recoil or transferred impact forces when blocking attacks.
