That is an oddly specific but probably much more accurate law of nature.

The woman who voices Pam looks nothing like Pam, but she is totes adorbs. Sorry, inapprops.

I don't think it's ever made clear in the Ultimate line. But I don't think we should just assume that Ultimate Cap had the exact same adventures that 616 Cap did.

Even the first two series?
