Captain America #3

In "Museum Piece," Captain America finds himself in the heart of the Smithsonian, where a battle against Hydra unfolds among the exhibits. With a replica of his classic triangular shield in hand, he fights to protect the museum's treasures—only to earn a new, more personal weapon when the curator hands him the shield for good. Written by Mark Waid and brought to life by Ron Garney’s dynamic art, with inks by Bob Wiacek and vibrant colors by Joe Rosas and Digital Chameleon, this 1998 issue blends history, heroism, and a touch of legacy. The cover by Ron Garney and Bob Wiacek captures the moment with striking precision.
