Colossus - Mutant of the Month May 08

Written by  X-Men Nation Admin
Colossus PhotoYou demanded it.  Colossus has been voted Mutant of the Month for May 2008 and he won by an overwhelming margin.  When he first arrived in Russia in the pages of Uncanny X-Men we discovered the fate of Kitty Pryde and, collectively, our hearts broke.  Our saving grace was that Joss Whedon's resurrection of Piotr Rasputin would bring the character into the new millenium in a way he wasn't included in the X-Men during the 90's.   Colossus has been through so much, even we as readers may have forgotten he lost his entire family and the woman he loves because he is such a strong character and like Nightcrawler, despite all the heartache, still manages to be a human being of innocence, integrity, and pride.  It's probably safe to say when Colossus sacrificed himself in order to cure the legacy virus and dissappeared for a while, that it was probably his first and last time off the front burner of the X-Men.
