It follows Joe Higgins, the original Shield, as he battles threats to American ideals with his star-spangled costume and shield-based weaponry. The volume gathers key stories from the character's Golden Age and later appearances, showcasing his role as a pioneering patriotic icon in the medium.
In "The Mosconian Menace, Part 6," the Shield races to stop a deadly submarine attack on a passenger ship, then springs into action in Washington DC to thwart the Mosconians' latest scheme—this time targeting Congress. With the fate of the nation hanging in the balance, the hero must outthink a foreign threat before it’s too late.
