Mutant? No, he's not a mutant, and no his power doesn't come from armor he wears, it's actually part of his power not what gives him most of it. Havok pretty much explained the rest quite simply.
i used to think juggernaught was a mutant but only when i was like 3

I know I read someplace the Cain is a mutant.
The Crimson Gem of Cyttorak gives him his strength and durrability, but I know people were pissed that it was revealed he was a mutant.
Also in the AoA reality I know he was still a huge man the same size he is when he is the Juggernaut in the 616 reality. If he isn't a mutant then wouldn't he just be a regular sized human seeing as how he never obtained the Gem of Cyttorak?

its a comic book, cain isnt a mutant just a buff guy, if he was a mutant his powers (whatever they would be) would manifest during his teens, which didnt happen, he found the gem of cytorrak and it made him a.......well, a juggernaut heheh
I did not read all of the AOA series, so I might have missed that portrayal of Cain. He's not a mutant, but the depiction could possibly be an error on the writer's part much like the Havok killing Cyclops incident near the end (both brothers cannot be hurt by each other's power much like the Cassidy cousins).
Not all mutants powers manifest when they are teens. Some mutants have dormant powers that never manifest at all. For instance LifeGaurd's brother (can't remember his name) had dormant mutant powers that Sage unlocked for him. If she had not done that they would remain dormant until he died.
In regards to AoA . Yes it is a comic book, but even in a comic book they never have a human character who is as big as the Hulk. They only have characters that have super strength that large.

No Forge can't make something out of nothing. Marvel has stated that quite clearly. But as long as there is dirt to pick up he can use a straw or something to draw the raw materials out and make say, i dunno, adamantium.
Really the only way to stop Juggernaut is to detain him and find the crystal and destroy it. Least that's what marvel has stated. Course he can be stopped magically and telepathically. I wonder how he would stand up to a solid thought superhero. If he would be vulnerable physically to someone like that. I mean wouldn''t a telepathic touch be just as devastating as a mind blast in that case.
yeah but that was once in the history of the marvel universe, anyway what would cains power be? and if he were a mutant how would cytorrak make him weaker and weaker as time passes?
I'm not sure what his powers are at all. I didn't say he got his super strength or durrability from the mutant power... just that he is a mutant... for all I know his mutant power my be the ability bite his own ear... in which case it wouldn't effect the gem at all. I just assume that the mutant "power" does nothing more than make him larger than most humans and doesn't grant him "special" powers. Getting weaker over time would have nothing to do with being a mutant, the gem gives him his strength and durrability on a much higher level than anything his body does naturally.

actually in the d'spayre/juggernaut issue, d'spayre become so powerful by absorbing juggernauts magic, that he said the fabric of reality was his to control even then his mystic attacks didnt stop juggernaut...
nightcrawler wouldnt stand a chance against d'spayre in a state of power like that.
