Thanos holds the distinction of being the only one to destroy the shield in both the comics and the MCU. He later used his powers to reassemble all of the items. Not only that, but in a tremendous show of power, he did it while simultaneously disintegrating Thor's hammer, Silver Surfer's surfboard, and Iron Man's suit. The uber-powerful villain Molecule Man, who has the ability to manipulate the molecules of anything, also destroyed Cap's shield. With this new power, Doom was able to obliterate Cap and his shield, but the Beyonder soon brought Cap and his shield back to life. In the iconic 1980s storyline Secret Wars, Doom acquired the powers of the Beyonder, one of the most powerful beings in the universe. One of the first to break Cap's shield was the supervillain Doctor Doom. You can blame that on adamantium being a poor substitute in a failed recreation of the original proto-adamantium. And yet Cap's shield, which is proto-adamantium - a mix of vibranium and some other mysterious alloys - has been scratched by Logan's claws numerous times with nary a mark to show for it. His adamantium claws are said to be able to slice through any substance, including, presumably, vibranium. And yet, Cap's shield has been able to withstand blows from Thor's hammer in both the comics and in the MCU without breaking. The thunder god's weapon Mjölnir is nigh-indestructible itself, being composed of the unearthly and mystical metal uru. Remarkably, Hulk has never even put a dent in Cap's vibranium wonder. And yet, by some miracle, Cap has been able to go toe-to-toe with the Hulk more than once, even taking a direct punch to the shield from the big green guy on several occasions.
