    Yeah, it's true...But there's one huge difference between The Shield and Captain America...
     
    Shield: Who's heard of him outside hardcore comic fans?
     
    Captain America: Mainstream icon, known throughout the world.
     
     So while ol' Stevie Rogers might've been inspired by Shield, one took-off, the other obviously didn't. And if sales are any indication, the new generation isn't ready for The Shield, either.

    So in short words the question is "Did you know that the Shield came before Captain America?" 
     
    Yes I did, only after the announcement that they were bringing him back.
