Why him? He'd be far too powerful for the team he's on.

I would say Colossus. I would like for him to receive a strength, speed, and durability upgrade.

Colossus would be better off in a solo book though. Amazing character that is held back by his team imo.
Carver just ****ing kills me sometimes lmao

Not really. I mean a high level brick wouldn't have been suitable to the X crew back in the day, but in current times the X-mutants have high level players in every category except raw strenth. I'm not saying he needs to be another Hulk, but putting him in the range of Wonderman/Namor would do a lot to justify his positon. A strongman is kind of a joke when he's got team mates who can easily a lot more just by thinking hard.
If we're talking about the shitty "current" X-Men with Namor and Magneto, then sure, Colossus lags behind them. Though tbh, he should, because neither of them should be anywhere near an X-Men roster.
Up until Utopia, I didn't consider him to be really lacking behind most of the X-Men. There are outliers that are capable of super feats like Rachel, but most "proper" X-Men tend to inhabit the mid-meta to very low-herald bracket, and as far as that goes, Colossus is fine imo (again, unless we're counting the likes of Namor and Magneto).
They could have done something interesting with Colossusnaut, but as usual characterisation is something writers don't seem to give a shit about.

Colossus is basically the Aquaman Cyclops Pr of the JLA Summers brothers mods.
i want iceman to get an upgrade. or at leasy show his full potential. iceman has a lot of potential, but for some reason writers dont give too much about him.
juggernaut. let the guy have his powers back already will you.
superman 1 million AKA Kal kent, just put some super sun source up his a$$ so he wont lose powers anymore and we can finally see what he can do without being depowered 24/7.
Iceman has gotten an upgrade. Several times its been shown how powerful he is. What he NEEDS is character development. Stop chasing so much ass and grow tf up. He's an original x man and theyd have jubilee or x23 lead before him.
Same with Human Torch except he's shown zero improvement with his powers. I thought after his death hed b bad ass..but it didn't last. He should've stayed in the negative zone. And wtf at his relationship with medusa?!!
Colossus doesn't need a strength upgrade. They need to stay true to his character.

They haven't done any decent character work with Colossus since Whedon was on the book. Everything since then, even the Juggernaut thing, has just been a reversion in his character to a state he was in, in the 90s.

Yeah, that's him. Since then there were a few decent bits and pieces, but every time someone writes him now he's either whining about Illyana or Shadowcat.
Not to mention the Phoenix bollocks.

Yea he was pretty dope in Breakworld. U should watch the motion comic on Netflix/YouTube. The voice over work isnt bad at all.
Thing is with Magik is she should STAY in Limbo. I wouldnt mind seeing her having her own solo book where she deals solely with Demons and Hell Lords. Her and Colossus should rarely if ever cross paths (kinda like how in the 90s when Havok, Cyclops kept outta each others way) and he definitely shouldn't pine for her. She's a kunt. He should know that by now.. I also want him to get over kitty. That relationship is way past it's prime

I think I watched the first couple of episodes of it, but never watched all of it.
The sad thing is, they did write him getting over all of the Illyana stuff. Years ago. They just conveniently forgot about it when the time came to bring her back. Same with him being toxic to demons.
Shadowcat... Eh, I don't mind her, but the back and forth was annoying.
