First Appearence: The Amazing Spider-Man#367 (October,
1992)
Powers/Abilities: Death-Shield was a big dude and was
fairly strong. He also had a big shield made of some unnamed
material (It deflected Solo's bullets, so I'll go with Vibranium
as the cover-all)
Weaknesses: Don't tell him I said this, but he came off as
kind of dumb
History: Death-Shield was one of Taskmaster's students
who, along with Blood Spider and The Jagged Bow, were trained to
mimic Captain America, Spider-Man, and Hawkeye.
(Amazing Spider-Man#367) Solo and Spider-Man
stumble upon an estate which is supposed to be the site of
"some mysterious project". When they enter, Taskmaster
greets them and introduces his students. Solo says he has his own
name for the group... "Dead men" and opens fire.
Spider-Man basically saves their lives by pushing Solo's guns
away. Death-Shield charged Spider-Man and sandwiched him against
a wall, but Spider-Man just wrapped him up with his webbing and
turned his attention to Blood Spider. He was later seen tied up
with The Jagged Bow, courtesy of Solo.

These guys were pretty weak, considering they survived Taskmaster's training (Read all about it in Agent X)
I think he winded himself knocking Spider-Man against the wall.
I mean, really, he looks nothing inside the book as he does on the cover. Eesh
