A new image from The Boys season 3 reveals the first look at Soldier Boy's shield. Amazon Prime launched one of the most popular superhero shows in recent memory back in 2019 with The Boys. When season 2 debuted in 2020, The Boys' popularity increased as even more people watched the series. The story continued The Boys' quest to take down The Seven, the biggest superhero team in the world. Banking on the success of the series, led by showrunner Eric Kripke, Amazon announced The Boys season 3 prior to the sophomore season debuting.

The Boys features a big ensemble led by Jack Quaid's Hughie Campbell, Karl Urban's Billy Butcher, Antony Starr's Homelander, and Erin Moriarty's Starlight. Season 3 is poised to introduce a number of new characters from Garth Ennis and Darick Roberton's comics, and no debut is more anticipated than Jensen Ackles playing Soldier Boy. The Supernatural star will play the Captain America parody and has been teasing his involvement on social media.

Ackles' latest Soldier Boy tease reveals the first look at the character's shield in The Boys season 3. The actor mentioned in his post that all of the dents and scratches tell a story in Soldier Boy's past and that each one of them ends with the character winning. The fairly comic accurate shield is only the beginning, though, as Ackles says that the full Soldier Boy character reveal is coming tomorrow.

The design of Soldier Boy's shield adheres to the general look it has in the comics with the golden eagle prominently featured. The biggest difference that is visible from this first look is with the placement of the star. The comic's version of Soldier Boy's shield has the star affixed at the top of the shield above the eagle's head. For The Boys season 3, the star has been moved to the center of the shield and the eagle's body. Although the shield isn't a perfect circle like Captain America's, the centered star does draw more similarities between the two patriotic heroes.

With the full Soldier Boy costume reveal coming shortly, it will be fun to see what other changes The Boys season 3 made to the character's look. Ackles has teased his intense workout regimen to play the character, who should shake up the Supes world when the series returns. Hopefully, the full costume reveal will provide fans with additional teases on Soldier Boy's involvement, such as whether or not this is the original Soldier Boy or a secret replacement.
