Because, all past history shows that Piotr isn't even the personality type that would be able to capitalize on the Cyttorak power, and definitely should not end up with "uber-cyttorak-power".
And, it is pretty obvious that X-titles love to take even their lowliest characters, ignore continuity and have them end up ruling their own universe, defeating gods, besting high-level characters, etc.
Piotr having the Cy-power is just a ploy to give the X-titles a top+tier brick. Regardless of how it effects the rest of the books.
They want the x-books to have a "Thor", or a "Hulk", or a "Silver Surfer".
Read the fight with Unit, gotta say, Colossus has this special ability to suck in a way that few characters could ever hope to match.
The battle with Rulk was extremely meh. After Colossus transforms, he starts beating the shit out of Rulk until he messes with his head. The Russian then pulls off his helmet, and gives Rulk his opening, he then gets layed out in 3 hits (Which imo is pretty weak).
Also, it's pretty clear that regular Colossus could never hope to take on Rulk, Romita just didn't draw a helmet.
Looks like he powered down and let rulk take him out before he lost it and killed everyone. he wasn't even fighting back and egging rulk on to hit him harder...
Yeah when Colossus doesn't have his Juggernaut helmet on that is just regular old Colossus. By addding his helmet he gains the ability of Juggernaut.
I thought for sure they were going to have him win as Colossus is going to be battling various other characters (Thing and Spider-Man revealed thus far)
Colossus wanted to snap the pillar supporting Utopia along with Rulk so he powered down before he was consumed by the bloodlust. Demon Colossus would have definately killed Rulk.
Damn you Colossus!!! Way to make being The Juggernaut look completely awful! Tho i do believe Colossus has more control of his power level than Cain has shown (lowering and raising it like that) it still hurts to see that crap as a Juggernaut fan
I dont see anything wrong with the showing...if anything, it was a good showing for Colossus. He was destroying Red Hulk and powered down so that Hulk could beat him. What's wrong with that? Now we know that a full powered Colossus is no joke and appears to be above Cain...far above him imo.
Meh, I would have liked to have seen a better fight but compared to his other showings, it was all alright.
I'm more worried about Thor facing the Phoenix. It isn't Fraction, Gillen or Bendis writing the main battle, apparently Remender is for some reason, which based on history doesn't fill me with confidence. He's more of a street level guy writing about a cosmic entity which has been one shotting planets with ease.
