colossulrage
Nobody?

Colossus hasn't really had a lot of strength feats since his return. Sure, he clobbered people like Venom and Ord and whatnot, but all his best feats have been ones of durability: Tanking a sentinel blast, tanking the danger room defences, atmospheric entry and impact etc etc

He tossed that big globe through the lobby of the building in Uncanny I believe.

And uhhhh....Magneto used his body to fight Proteus after he was ko'd by him. Although, Colossus was once again knocked so high and far away from the others that he couldn't be seen, he survived that rather easily.

He threw down decently with Hulk in that one shot.

The reason he isn't shown off more like most bricks, I'm assuming is because unlike most bricks, he's part of a pretty big team, so they have to showcase everyone evenly, even though as strong man he should be spotlighted more.

Back during the Mutant Massacre and The Fall Of The Mutants stories in the late 1980's, he had increasing trouble transforming back to flesh & blood. Injuries were keeping him in his armoured state. It also made his strength levels go out of control - he was smashing things he tried to touch gently. I think that was his strongest period.

^^^Really, he got stuck as metal and lost control of his strength? What issues is that in?

I can't remember what issues, but it was when he got hurt by Riptide's shurikens. He couldn't turn back to normal, and Magneto tried to fix him, but that made him bigger and a lot stronger than he was before.

He's actually saying Colossus is one of the most overrated characters in comics, and he's given too much credit.

You mean the rage crap? Thats not an upgrade, thats just him being pissed off. were onces did it say he was upgraded? People way over play the rage thing a lot.







Colossus is badly on the boards and it based mostly on how he looks not what he actually done.

i wasnt talking about the rage thing. at all.

he's only overrated by a few people. bar that, he's usually all right, as far as i've seen.

Really becuase that the only thing that happened. It never once stated he got upgraded.


Thats the problem people say it fine, but it not. Colossus get put on a level he simply not in on strength and durability. Most of the time he put far above Thing which to be honest is inaccurate. his feats of durbaility and strength neither out class thing and yet people consistently say he stomps Thing. Then you have people providing no evidences and when they do provide evdiences they add context that is not there nor was the authors intent.

For example you just did it, by saying he had an upgrade during astonishing dispite there being nothing stated (which I don't believe you purposely did, but simply though so becuase of misconceptions on the board). There are many misconceptions on the baord about colossus that boosts him to level he simply not at.

what worse is people try and argue he has superhuman reflexes and agility dispite no such thing ever being stated on pannel or even shown. All he has is his human level of agility and reflexes nothing mor nothing less.

it wasn't the only thing that happened. colossus got older, which as we know meant he got stronger. his feats showed higher durability than he'd shown before. even the handbooks of all things are recognising him as being a cl100 nowadays.

umm, no. his agility and reflexes are enhanced past what they are in human form. that's been a fact since the john byrne days. nobody's saying he's a superhuman, but they are enhanced.

KingD19
I remember Colossus was fighting a guy who he knew was stronger than him, so he used speed and agility mixed with strength to beat him. They even showed him jumping onto a wall, then pushing off and rolling into a ball, only to uncurl and kick the guy at the last second. You can't do that without some sort of enhanced reflexes/agility.

ya colossus is crazy agile for a huge brusier!
