Ultimate Captain America Annual #1 is, at best, a flawed comic. The writing is problematic and fails to prop up an otherwise solid concept. The story feels woefully incomplete, essentially telling readers they'll need to fork over more money for a proper conclusion in some unknown future project. But the art is gorgeous, and the core appeal of these characters shines through much better than it did in The Ultimates 3. If every section of the Ultimate U could show this level of improvement, the imprint's problem days would be over. Read Full Review

But I can't recommend this comic - it just rambles around, shows a few fight sequences and otherwise, it doesn't really say or do much of anything. It's an Ultimate comic, all right. Read Full Review
That makes more sense for the Panther arc in Ultimates 3, but it still doesn't makes that awful comic better.
