Cmon, metal man. It hasn't been 15 minutes yet, you could have edited that all into one post! :-P.
I could've, it just would've taken me a long time. I was going through it from a couple pages ago, so I felt that was the easiest route. 😛
Edit: Oh yea. And I do what I want. 😎

I know it's hardly official, but his wikipedia bio states:
Colossus possesses the ability to transform his entire body into a form of 'organic steel', named by some sources as analogous to osmium, but of still unknown composition. In his armored form Colossus possesses incalculable superhuman strength. Also while in his armored form, possesses near limitless stamina. Colossus is practically invulnerable and is capable of withstanding great impacts, high caliber bullets, falls from great heights, temperature extremes of hot and cold, electricity, and magical attacks without sustaining injury. His body cannot rust under normal Earth conditions. Also, while in his armored form, he requires no food, water or even oxygen to sustain himself.
I think his official marvel bio says similarly.
Let's look at this fight, using logical arguments and evidence.
Namor has been able hurt Reed by physical means with a single punch. Reed needed the help of his wife to stand up.
Reed's stamina is that of a normal human. Colossus, on the other hand, can fight near-full strength for days on end.
Reed has stated on-panel that he has to intentionally keep shifting his body to be immune to physical attacks.
I agree that while Reed has his energy, Colossus will not be able to do much to him. It is also clear that Reed will not be able to do much to Colossus. Reed, however, will tire out. And when he does, Colossus is going to take advantage of him, and (excuse my French) beat the living shit out of him.

His marvel bio states similarly, if it makes you feel any better. 😛.

THAT makes me feel better. i've aload of x-books but none all that recent and i don't recall him ever being able to go completely without air, indefinitely. if snoop backs it up, i'll give c the benefit of the doubt then and say he WOULD eventually wear reed down.
but if he COULD be choked out . . .
death

i was wondering if that had ever been backed up in scans. the only thing 'official' about bios is that they suck.snoop says he's got scans. i'll believe him, but i am wondering what's the longest he's gone without air, or if he could survive having reed fill his lungs or other internal organs . . .
Did you see this one?

ahh, he edited his post, did he . . . 😖hifty:thanks for pointing it out. 😉
i wonder still if reed gets INSIDE him via his mouth, then sprouts spikes for instance in his throat or lungs . . .
:death:
