Sam Wilson embodies justice as the new Captain America. This 2-Cost, 3-Power card places Captain America's Shield on your side, granting +2 Power to any Captain America card at that location. Sam's Ongoing ability allows you to move the shield each turn. Will this benefit other Captain America cards in the future?

Joaquín Torres (Falcon)

Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross
