Colossus not Class 100?
Alright, of all the Handbook-style books out there, the Secrets of the House of M book is the newest, and that is the Colossus version that we all know from Astonishing X-Men, but in the SOTHOM book it says Colossus' max strength is to the point where he can ALMOST press 85 tons. So i think all the hype about him being Class 100 is false unless someone can prove me otherwise from a scan from some other source. And yes, i know Ultimate Colossus is Class 100 easily but im not talking about him this is 616 were talking about here. So wut does everyone think of that?

well as an x-man colossus was seen to work out many times , but in the house of m he is a peaceful farmer.
you have to give that some thought too.

Also everyones been changed by Wanda. So while colossus in the house of m might be class 85 he certainly wasnt in 616

Handbooks are dumb...they all downgrade the characters and let the writers go way beyond what they're supposed to be able to do. By now I think most informed readers (the majority of this forum included) realize this and just learn to disregard the handbooks for the most part. Aside from Wanda messing with Colossus, he definitely doesn't max out at 85.

colossuys is definatley clas100 now. he was on the cusp of it when he succumbed to the legacy virus, but it turened out that he didnt die but rahter his body just went in a catatonic state, a state that mimmcked death....next thing you know that alien guy they beat down, when they went to rescue him, was mucking with his genes all this time and unlocked his full potential.....bear in mind also that even the old school handbooks alwys said that, piotr is just a teenager and his full potential will be unleashed once he reached adulthood, and he's a grown ass man now, so it makes sense that he's class 100.
whether he is upper or lower class remains to be seen , but he's at least stronger than current juggernaut tho, who even though he only has a fraction of the power he once weilded is STILL class 100.

In November the 2005 X-men handbook comes out and his bio is in there.
In the 2003 Ultimate guide to the X-men it clearly says that Colossus can lift over 100 tons. Ill scan it if I have too.

He was seen lifting a sentinnel in House Of M. They must weigh more than a 100 tons.
