Was there an Ultimates annual that shipped recently? If so, was it good?

Yes, written by Charles Huston. I had some high expectations due to Huston´s MK run, but was a little bit dissapointed. It´s entirely a Cap/Falcon story against Arnim Zola (with many flashbacks).
I´d say (so far as I know his solo series) a typical Captain America story, of course, very morally but personally I don´t like these kind of stories. That may be due to the fact that I´m no US american. Otherwise it´s not a bad story.
Btw, the used german terms are bad, very bad (in point of translating and spelling). Maybe the worst I´ve read in a Marvel comic for a long time.
I´m adding an example: It´s not Kapitän America, Kapitän is in German always naval. Cap is army, so it´s Hauptmann America.
This is an old mistake and I wouldn´t necessarily blame a "new" writer like Huston for it. But the editors should really know it by now.

I'll bet that goes all the way back to Simon and Kirby; certainly Stan Lee made the same mistake in the Sivler Age. Thanks for the clarification!!
And, thanks for the head's up on the annual. I will probably skip it...
