Which one is better? 
I'm thinking of reading Ultimate Captain America issue 1

616 accept no substitutes.

If you'd asked me pre-brubaker's run I'd have said ultimate as he's pretty badass. 
 
But brubaker's made Cap more of a soldier instead of a boy scout, he's not superman he's a soldier. 
 
And since Rogers 616 become the 'top cop' I'd definitely say he's the dogs bollocks

Ditto. "

yeah 616

616, Ultimate seems like a d-bag

One of the few times where both versions are so excellent that choosing one is almost like splitting hairs. 

I can't help but think of these characters in terms of politics, classic cap is a New Deal era Dem and Ultimate Cap, well, I'm not sure entirely but certain dialogue (crapping on France when classic Cap has expressed nothing but the highest respect for the French resistance?) remind me of various jokes I'd heard (and, embarrassingly, even repeated) while going to a very conservative university during the beginning of the Iraq war.

I'm not saying you should only like characters whose politics you agree with, but it doesn't make sense to me that Cap's attitudes would reflect modern political views on either side of the spectrum. I certainly don't see him crapping on WWII allies.

616. the hardest part about this question was typing this sentence.

616 Is much better than the ultimate xD

616

Well Ult Cap used children as meat shields against War Machine...

That's a tough a question. Both incarnations are great to me for the same reason, they never give up.

616. Ultimate Cap is an a-hole with no really redeeming qualities.

616 > Ultimate for anything.

616 ofc.

616. No question about that.

I like Ultimate Cap because they portray him more as a soldier, which is something I wish they'd do with his 616 version more. But what I also like about his Ultimate version is that they are open and point out that he is a Christian and believes in God, which, as a Christian myself, I rarely see in comics and despite those who might argue, I wholeheartedly believe that 616 Cap is a Christian as well.
 
But as for who I like more, it would have to be 616 Cap, without a doubt.

ult cap. is to blame for ult pete death so 616 cap.
