![]() One can not carry his own body weight without drugs, and the other still has peak human strength even without his metal form. Judging by the limitations of the 1610 Colossus' abilities, there's basically no contest between him and the 616 one. ![]() ![]() And just like in the comics, he's able to singlehandedly take on Juggernaut. The Colossus of the Deadpool movies however, played by Stefan Kapicic, is practically a carbon copy of the 616 iteration, with a thick Russian accent, ring-segment plating, and a heart that's a little too sweet for his own good. His skin is a smooth metal, and it's highly likely this inspired his design in Ultimate X-Men. He's depicted as strong, but his role is very minor, so it's a little difficult to determine exactly how strong he really is. The Colossus of the original Bryan Singer-directed X-Men movies, played by Daniel Cudmore, bears little resemblance to his traditional comics counterpart. And while the 616 version is vulnerable to adamantium attacks, the ultimate Colossus is actually impervious to them, though this could just be chalked up to 1610 adamantium being considerably weaker than 616 adamantium. Instead, he derives his strength from the substance Banshee, a drug that enhances mutant powers. More importantly, he actually doesn't possess super-strength as one of his superpowers, so at first, his metal form was so heavy that he couldn't even move it. Starting from a purely aesthetic standpoint, his metal skin lacks the segmented rings of the classic Colossus design, much like his appearance in the Bryan Singer movies. Though sharing the same name as his 616 counterpart, the Colossus of the Ultimate X-Menbooks (part of the Marvel 1610 universe) actually has a vastly different relationship to his mutant abilities. Both adamantium and vibranium can puncture his mysterious metal tissue, which means Wolverine's claws, Black Panther's suit, and especially Captain America's shield (a vibranium-adamantium alloy) could easily best him in combat. While this plating makes him nearly indestructible, he still has a few weaknesses. It's not just a shell over his body, either- it fully replaces his skin, bone and muscle fibers when his mutant abilities are activated. The metal in his system is undefined, but it's said to have nearly identical properties to carbonite steel. colossal.Ĭolossus first emerged in Giant Size X-Men #1 (by Len Wein, Dave Cockrum and Peter Iro), first exhibiting his powers by blocking an unmanned oncoming tractor with his body. Between the classic universe, the Ultimate universe, and the varied depictions of the movies, let's see which Colossus is the most. Piotr Rasputin, AKA The Colossus, is typically acknowledged as the strongest mutant of the X-Men, but the limits of his strength vary heavily from one portrayal to the other.
