  1. His magnetically attracted shield?

    After being de-thawed Tony Stark made some adjustments to Cap's shield (I think he added a radio at some point as well)

    Now, as for weirdness involving the shield, there was a story with Cap, Luke Cage and Spider-Man, I think it may have been in one of those I heart Marvel books.

    In it, Luke strikes Cap's vibration-absorbing shield causing it to reverberate like a gong. Loudly enough to incapacitate whomever they were fighting, and deafen the three heroes.

  3. The magnetic gadgetry didn't last more than a few issues. They quietly dismissed the gimic a few issues later, where Cap complained that they magnetic hoo-hah upset his shield's delicate balance. Whether or not Tony had to actually apologize to Cap's shield was never disclosed.
