is colossus made of organic steel or some other type of metal?
the sharpness of his claws would matter alot even without much force applied, i've cut through a knife with a 420 steel dagger of mines by just applying small amounts of pressure, with wolvie's enhanced strength i think he could run thing through, i just dont know what would happen, so this battle would end up with wolverine being thrown far far away or thing entangling him with a steel post or something, but thats from my point of view
Colossus is made up of organic steel as Marvel calls it. And its way harder than any form of steel on earth excluding the adamantium crap in the Marvel Universe.

I think Thing's is alot more durable. He's taken hits from Hulk, Gladiator, Thor, etc. without having his skin peeled off. It's going to take alot more force behind those claws to pierce Thing's skin.
well actually it was never stated that adamantium is harder than colossus' organic steel. As I posted earlier read x-men annual #6. In that story Wolverine tries to slash at Colossus and it basically had no affect on on him except for some sparks. No real damage. Believe it or not but I dont think Wolverine could take Colossus either.

One hit from The Wrecker's crowbar turned Colossus into a virtual spectator for all of Secret Wars 1. I think Wolvie's claws are sharper than that crowbar.
ayyt ayyt...is the thing's skin like actual skin or is it like rock? cos i dunno...i keep seeing pictures....and it some it looks like its rock....does this mean he can regenerate as well???
things body is a mystery, i dont know if he has normal organs or "rock" organs, or simply no organs at all, i havent read much about the character either
yeah, i read that one a while back, i think wolvie could take on colossus in a good fight, but colossus would end up winning, because these two characters superstrength would eventually be dealt by grappling wolverine into submission or some other way of the like
I think there's some misunderstanding : Wolverine has little problem piercing Thing's skin. Rock or no rock. He has done it before, and can do it again. That's why Thing has to keep distance if he wants to walk away unharmed.
But when Wolverine tries to stab Thing, he better go for the heart or the brains. Because Thing will be furious, and Wolverine stands virtually no chance against an enraged Thing.

I don't know much about Thing's anatomy either but a quick stab to the heart and/or brain like who?-kid said would seem like Wolverine's best chance for victory.
Yeah, one well placed attack from either of them would make the other go down. So with wolverine's okay maneuverability, I think he could land that vital stab first.
no one really knows much about Thing's body, not even Reed, this was revealed when his skin started to make evil clones of itself that would have killed all the heroes in New York in just a few hours...but long story...The writers have been inconsistent about the Thing vs Wolverine's claws thing...back in the day wolverine couldnt cut Thing or even Hulk's skin....now the writers have Hulk getting cut to bits....and wolvie slashing through Ben's face with possibly his most ferocious blow he can muster. Regardless, I still think it looked like Thing didnt think his old friend wolverine would actually slice his face...obviously if an enraged THing cuts loose on wolverine, wolverine wont stand a chance. Thing has knocked wolverine out with one casual blow to his head...advantage: Thing
About colossus, his skin is not only weaker than adamantium, it is vastly weaker...adamantium can withsatnd the heat of a nuclear bomb...Colossus has been seriously injured by the mediocre flames of pyro.
Thing is not the Hulk, Thing has excellent hant to hand fighting skills...he also doesnt have the Hulk's healing ability, although it seems he has his own funny way of healing...regardless, Wolevie isnt going to just be ripping him apart...from their last fight it is apparent that Thing has the necessary skills to get his hands on him. I look forward to the new FF X-men book...is there an actual fight between the two?
I'm unsure how durable Colossus' exterior shell is, but he has decent resistence to heat. Pyro's flame monster once grappled Colossus (without causing him injury) during the "Days Future Past" series.
Thing has been a decent contender for Hulk merely for his determination, despite being terribly outmatch in strength.
Wolverine in many encounters doesn't seem to consider stealth/evasion too often in his fighting tactics, but instead favoring head on bouts. Unfortunately if taking this approach, Thing could do substantial damage [or any heavy-weight for that matter]. However, the effectiveness of Wolverine's claws from the previous encounter could also affect Thing to the point of being hesitant or even afraid of him. Regardless, in a no holds fight, I'm sure the consequences would lead to either death or permanent injury for both parties.

The thing about Colossus' body is that it is just more than his skin that is steel. His whole body including his bones,lungs,eyes, etc. He is more durable than Thing. But as far as the fight goes with Thing Wolverine dont have much of a chance if he just tries to slug it out with him. He will get knocked the %uc* out.
