"Captain America"is famous as a "World War II" comic superhero who got frozen in deep sea and his best friend dies, or at least Bucky appeared to be dead. After being defrosted by the Avengers in "Avengers #004" he had solo adventures of his in "Tales of Suspense" starting in issue #59 after his fight with "Iron Man" in the previous issue, from that issue until issue#99, the last issue published under that title it had a monthly features of both "Iron Man" & "Captain America".

Come to think of it this way: If they were not able to open the gate; how did they let "Captain America" in
