if Hulk not angry enuff : Colossus definitly

KingD19
Hulk has blunt force durability out of this world, and so does Colossus, but Hulks skin ain't made outa metal that is virtually indestructible, which is why he has a healing factor. He's been pierced, slashed, cut, many many times.

616 Colossus has been pierced twice to my knowledge, and one he became impervious to, the other, was some qausi-mystic, alien crap.

The only time I've even seen 616 Colossus bleed was when Cassandra Nova had him thinking he was fighting Sebastian Shaw, and that was a single drip out his nose.

Ulitmates doesn't count, but he completely resisted Logan's attack the first time, and was only affected after Banshee had him on the verge of collapse.

it's kind of hard to answer since hulks come in different flavors, and in some stories, even wolverine couldn't cut him.

but on average, colosus seems more cut resistant, but if he actually got cut by like a lightsaber or something, he wouldn't be able to heal the damage hulk could. same maybe goes for adamantium blades (speculation).

so imo, colossus' overall hardness is balanced out by the hulk's regeneration.

I fail to see an embarassment here Starscream...

I see several people nutswinging on a random statement that makes no examples to speak of and KingD19 who poses a legitimate argument that Colussus is durable but in no way shows that he's more durable than WWH. erm

Oh WAIT! This thread isn't about WWH which WAS what we were talking about before... God... do you even think before you engage in random acts of stupidity or do you just do it on instinct alone?

but it is my opinion that colossus has FAR better pierce resistance than hulk

lmao @ nut swinging. I don't think Hulks hf should be factored in when discussing durability. say for example, a steel spear weighing a thousand pounds was fired at both bruce and rasputin with say ten thousand pounds of force. hulk would be punctured whereas piotr would not. there is no need for scans or on panel evidence when common knowledge about characters powersets is evident.

but it is my opinion that colossus has FAR better pierce resistance than hulk i agree that colossus is more cut resistance, only because hulk is not stable. like i said earlier, in one arc even logan's claws were useless against his skin. if you were to only use that incarnation, hulk wins without question.

KingD19
When Hulk and Juggernaut fought, the only times I can remember that Hulk definitely won, was when Hulk was amped by Celestial tech, and when WWH moved and let Juggs run into the lake. Colossus has held his own with Juggernaut, he loses every time, but he never gets raped. It's like Strong Guy trying to fight Sentry or Wonder Man, he can hold his own and get some good hits in, but he will lose eventually.

WTF does Juggernaut have to do with anything? those are different circumstances. Hulks strength is dynamic and his hf allows for him to hang with Juggernaut. Colossus unfortunately for the xman has a plateau, and cain will trump him everytime. However this is not what the discussion is about, every incarnation of Hulk I've seen thus far has shown him being stabbed cut or punctured. its his healing factor that moves at lightning speed to recover the damage. He is infact being cut, he's just healing at a rate that would make the casual observer think otherwise

in fact hulk has quite low resistance to being cut, even thing is more resistant in that regard

(iirc his claws cut him once and Hulk healed, but in another fight the claws didnt do a anything to him)

out of pure durability (meaning without factoring HF), Colossus is the MOST durable being on marvel earth besides classic juggernaut

KingD19
Dude, you do realize this is about resistance to sharp attacks like bullets and blades and what not. Hulks skin and muscle have been pierced a bunch of times, whereas Colossus has not. And we already brought this up, Colossus loses, but in no way does he get his ass kicked.

And yes, in my opinion, Colossus is the most durable mortal human character in Marvel besides Juggs. Wonder Man don't count.

Sin I AM
I recall logan and hulk fighting a wendigo. logan attempted to slash hulk but it appeared to have no effect and logan paid dearly for that mistake. but once he attacked the canadian, he was able to cut him so he changed his tactics and helped fight the wendigo. but I think (correct me if im wrong) that general ross or whoever created the gamma corps, found traces of Hulks blood after that fight and presumably it was because of logans claws. so yet again it appeared as if he wasn't cut but in actuality he was

KingD19
Well, Hulk has been gutted by someone, it may be Logan. To the point that his intestines were hanging out, he put them back in and held them there, and he healed so fast it took him a minute to realize that he'd healed with his hands still inside his body, he had to rip them out and start over.

The Nuul
A super fast HF doesnt count for durability.

Colossus takes this with ease.

KingD19
I know it doesn't count, I was mainly trying to make that point that he had been gutted, the healing was just me explaining the rest of what happened.

Ultron?

Technically, Ultron is a robot, so he doesn't count. I guess you could count Cyber, since his whole body is made of adamantium.

He said "being" not person/human/living thing/mutant/etc.

Ultron is a sentient machine, so he/she/it counts as a "being". smile

And yes, Cyber should count.

D_Dude1210
Also, Sentry has some pretty good durability feats as well...

KingD19
Well Sentry is usually considered to be up there with cosmic entities, so I don't know if he counts, and you're right Ultron is a runner, but Hulk busted at least a small crack in him, in which Wasp flew in and messed up his circuits. It took WWH to bend Colossus arms back, and it's the first time he's ever been hurt that bad, besides getting hit by Pete Wisdom's knives.

What the f**k?

KingD19
Well, he was stated to have stalemated Galactus by Spidey, though it could have been a rumor. He did break Terrax's axe, and wailed on WW Hulk, something Surfer couldn't do. I'd say his abilities, plus his feats make him at least high end top tier, among Gladiator and Hyperion.

Well then that makes the writers liars. Because only Ultrons joints are supposed to be Secondary, limbs and his head and body are supposed to be Primary.

D_Dude1210
Let's not derail the discussion, tho. Colossus obviously has higher durability vs piercing attacks vs Hulk's base level durability. It's not even a question or comparison. stick out tongue

It's just that Colossus IS NOT the most durable being in Marvel Earth second only to the Juggernaught. ;P There are obviously a few others who are more durable...

You're telling me..! stick out tongue I'm still pissed at them for the whole Beyonder Retcon BS...!

KingD19
Okay, then yes, you're right. And I will say that Colossus is the most durable regular human without augmentation besides Juggernaut. Cyber had to be given his adamantium exoskeleton, Colossus was born with his powers. Well technically, he is the most durable mutant human without augmentations, since Juggs is an avatar of the god or raw power, and Cyber had to pay for his skin, etc...

And writers sometimes suck monkey balls.

So, Hulk also raises his durability when hes mad??? He cant do that, its just a super fast HF and writers inconsistency.

Serious Impact
Colossus wins on pure resistance to being pierced. If Hulk's resistance increases as he gets angrier, well, he'd have to be WWHulk levels to come close to Colossus' sheer resistance to piercing damage. Even if this were true, I'm basing my opinion on the average Hulk through out the years, not him at his peak, as the OP didn't specify WWHulk.

As for the most durable beings in Marvel, everyone seems to forget about poor old Achilles, from the Pantheon. Aside from his weakness to Gamma radiation, making him pretty useless against the Hulk, the guy was all but completely invulnerable to damage. He ranks up there with the heavy weights in the durability department, even if it was his only real super power. The Juggernaut takes the durability trophy hands down though...for non-cosmic beings anyway.

well right, his durability increases ( how much can you take and still keep going, eg healing factor) not his invulnerability ( how much can you take without being injured), they are two different things, hulk has tough skin (durability) while colossus has hard and dense skin ( invulnerability).. so while hulk's skin is extremely tough...he will be pierced long before colossus gets pierced due to the hardness or stiffness of colossus's skin.

I must dissagree that colossus is not next to juggernaut on the invlunerability scale in MU universe, we still have guys like king hyperion, gladiator, diamond lil ( maybe ), kimura, , captain britain, omerta, radius, unus...etc.

Sin I AM
as far as marvel earth is concerned I believe colossus comes in second behind Juggernaut. Captain Britains powers rely to heavily on his confidence now ala Gladiator to be used.

yes, you are right, i believe he is more durable than colossus but not invulnerable, he gets tougher, his durability is proportional to his level of anger/rage, his most durable incarnation was WWH, the question is how mad must he be to have the same invulnerablility as colossus?

Nope, not his spokesman, you just asked why and I gave my answer.

I know it was a Skrull and Herc wasn't fighting back, but Hulk still whooped on everybody. The fact that Colossus even lasted more than one page is a miracle. And if the Hulk compliments you, then you're pretty good.

Well to be fair, they DID say Marvel Earth. SS and Glad aren't in Earth atm.

And I haven't seen any solid feats about Herc and Thor's durability against piercing attacks that outshines that of Colossus'. Their durability against blunt/energy/force/impact attacks are easily better, tho.

Well, they have been on Earth a great deal.

What do you mean solid feats?

Taking heavy artillery etc. unharmed?

That hasn't been a problem for say Thor.

Thor hasn't been pierced through conventional weaponry etc.

I doubt he has been pierced more than a few times. I can only think of one or so moments. The time with Desak who used his weapons to attack Thor. Of course that was Desak.

There is no real way to rate this but based of overall durability feats, they trump Colossus rather extremely.

Also the dude, said out of pure durability Colossus is the most durable on Earth next to the Juggernaut and I know that isn't true.

There is no real way to rate this but based of overall durability feats, they trump Colossus rather extremely.

Also the dude, said out of pure durability Colossus is the most durable on Earth next to the Juggernaut and I know that isn't true.

Well, I agree with you dude. Colossus is high up there but nowhere is he the second most durable being in Marvel Earth.

They fail to mention: Sentry, Ultron, Cyber and perhaps many others.

But in terms of Thor or Herc's durability against piercing attacks.... artillery, tank shells, bullets, missles are not piercing weapons but blunt/impact/heat/energy based damage (unless you use armor-piercing bullets/shells). And I mentioned that Thor and Herc easily has the advantage in ALL of these durability-wise (Hulk, too). 'Cept that in terms of piercing attacks (Wolvie's claws, swords, daggers, spears, etc.), I haven't seen all that many high end feats from Thor (w/o his armor) or Herc...

Why did you include Wolverine's claws with swords and daggers?

Cuz those are piercing/slashing weapons? :-/

Except it isn't a good indicator of the durability to piercing damage since it is pretty much the sharpest/strongest weapon in Marvel...

They could be able to resist damage from the other weapons and still be hurt by his claws.

Well Wolverine's claws are Adamantium and I do believe Adamantium can cut Thor, Superman etc. if enough physical force is put behind it.

Things like spears, daggers etc. are useless against Thor just as they would be against Superman.

I mean, he took the Cosmic Stormbreaker axe to the chest and was unharmed I believe.

That alone should automatically place him steps above Colossus, penetration wise.

I haven't seen anything of conventional power ever penetrate Thor, be it, in or out of his armor. I can only think of probably 2 occasions where Thor has ever been penetrated by anything. I could be forgetting some issues but I don't think I am.

Thor is leagues above Colossus on all levels of durability. For some reason people assume that Thor is like Wonder Woman and can be hurt by bullets etc. Those are nothing to him.

colossus is made of organic steel, he should be more or less just as durable as the strongest steel.

Well, I was simply pointing them out less as a means of measurement but a means of describing what kind of attacks may fall into that category.

Also, ppl stated many times that Colossus has managed to shrug off Wolvie's claws...

he did almost die once when he was frozen to -200 or so degrees then quickly heated up to approximately 1000 degrees by pyro. his outer body cracked and he had to be healed by the morlock named...healer.

While Colossus gets layed out by beings like Juggernaut, Thor has gotten attacked by Odin, Thanos, Silver Surfer, etc. in the past and hasn't bleed.

He has been hit by planet destroying blasts, etc. and hasn't bleed if I recalled. He has been hit by Banner less Hulk multiple times and hasn't bleed.

While high and low temperatures have gotten the best of Peter, Thor has been able to survive in the core of the Sun unharmed, in space etc.

Something that could harm Thor in any significant way can most likely kill Colossus simply enough.

Are you honestly trying to compare the two physically?

Colossus probably can't even bleed as a we normally perceive as his body tissue becomes organic steel does it not?

Something that could make Thor bleed, would be able to take Colossus' head off.

It's almost as bad as the time you said Juggernaut is more durable than a Cosmic Being like Galactus. yes Colossus is far more durable than thor in terms of pierce damage

the fact that you would even debate that is laughable

you're a joke

Juggs took Thor's Godblast

Galactus was hurt by Thing

You be the judge. uhuh

I'm a joke.

What are you basing that on?

When has Colossus taken something that Thor could not?

Why do you act as this is some sort of fact?

When has Colossus taken attacks that would clearly cut right through Thor, or when has Thor been severely damage by attacks that would clearly not harm Colossus?

There has been no such showings. Based on past experience, Thor is extremely superior to Colossus in practically every way.

I'm a joke?

Who was the one who said Juggernaut is more durable than Galactus, a cosmic entity who doesn't even have a real pure physical body as we perceive?

Oh that's right, it was you....

it shows that Galactus is able to be harmed (regardless of how insignificant) whereas Juggernaut really isn't able to be harmed at all

a guy who takes .000001 damage still loses durability contest to a guy who takes 0 damage

Juggernaut took zero damage from a godblast, whereas Galactus took some (even if only very little) damage

I don't remember Thor actually hitting him with a godblast, only threatening to.

Thanos didn't hurt him, he just blasted through his ship. Same way Juggs has been thrown around, etc.

thanos hit him with a blast that sent galactus flying back, bouncing off the ground, with his helmet knocked off, and with scratches (galactus def looked like he got hurt a bit...as opposed to how classic juggernaut just laughs off physical attacks)

Galactus was annoyed, not hurt.

But with how ppl post on the forums, sometimes, the lines between annoyance and pain are often blurred... :P
