1st appearance of Ultimate Nick Fury

Any difference in Nick Fury's appearance or demeanor are not apparent in this issue similar to the Ultimate Fantastic Four's appearance in Ultimate Marvel Team-Up #9

Marvel seems to have committed to the depiction of Nick Fury as a younger, black, James Bond type operative in Ultimate X-Men #9

It wasn't until Ultimates #2 when Fury was unmistakably imagined as Samuel L. Jackson, published 6 years prior to Jackson's MCU debut in Iron Man (2008)
