    I absolutely HATED Emma's New Xmen diamond form, it didn't seem like it made her a diamond, just a shiny human with skin colors

    1. It becomes diamond blood, as shown in Morrison's new X-men (when she was attacked by Sublime) .

    2. I think she can still heal in her diamond form, and I think much faster than normal, given that when her arm snapped off in the last volume of UXM, she didn't seem to lose any of her diamond blood. So I imagine she'd stay in it until she had done so; otherwise she'd probably be hurt far worse.

    3. I'd say John Cassaday's version, which seems to have become the standard in the comics.

    @jojo111: I don't think she has any blood when in diamond form... when she was shattered by a diamond bullet she was just left in chunks of shattered diamond! No shiny diamond blood was spilled or in a puddle!

    This, and when she was shown bleeding in her diamond form it was because she was already bleeding before she went diamond, I think she shifted to get over the pain of the broken nose.

    The only one to ever make Emma bleed was Elias Bogan.

    Yeah, I was thinking of that same scan too. But aside from that particular moment, she never bled while on Diamond Form, or at least not that I can remember of.

    Also, when her arm was severed while on Diamond Form by that Celestial Blast, she also didn't bleed, not until she shifted back to human form to user her TP.

    Doesn't bleed in diamond form and some depictions have her pretty much completely solid all the way through. She's been shattered and there wasn't a glossy puddle, but a glossy pile. She also had her arm broken off and was fine. It wasn't until she reverted back to human form that she would have bled out and needed Namor to clutch the wound closed.

    Which answers your next question. Whatever damaged sustained in diamond form would be mirrored in human form but with those human repercussions. Like I said, she lost her arm and was fine in diamond form. When she transformed back to human, she would have bled out.

    She's still alive in diamond form though. She still needs to breathe. And how do we breathe, class?

    That's right, with our blood.

    No, she doesn't need to breathe. She doesn't need any form of sustenance in diamond form. She can live in that form for as long as she wants. Same with Colossus.

    Was it supposed that only the skin turned to diamond? I thought so at the start, but then Morrison implied that her whole body was made of diamond more than a time(when she discovered her mutation, Beast called her a "living diamond", Sublime threatened her to break her diamond form only some issues later, and then her body was broken). I think that she was like colossus since the start, it was the art which made only her skin look like diamond.

    what makes you think she (or Colossus) doesn't need to breathe?

    I'm not saying you're wrong, but I know I've seen Colossus in outer-space wearing a space suit, so I'm just wondering what you're basing that on.

    @oldnightcrawler: I know the Marvel handbook has stated Colossus does not require, food, water, or oxygen in his organic steel form and make mention he would not survive in a vacuum, hence the space suit most likely.

    And I have seen Emma make comments in her diamond form that she doesn't require sustenance either. I can't find my scans for them right now, though.

    ooh, you got me there; good show!

    I still don't think it makes any sense, but I'm sure I've ignored crazier things in the context of an X-men comic.

    @oldnightcrawler: Glad I could help you learn something. I will say this, Colossus does actually bleed in organic form sometimes. It's just supposed to be this energy that leaks out and he is more hollow since holes have been blown in him before. Emma on the other hand, is solid all the way through, as seen when shattered. Whether transparent or not, based on artistic interpretation.

    @god_spawn: see, I've seen both Colossus and Emma bleed in their "armored" forms, so between that and Colossus' space suit (and, well, the fact that they're alive), I assumed that they needed to breathe.

    crazy, man, just crazy. But I guess that's how it goes.

    And Emma is also immune to virus and pheromones, while Colossus isn't(when Bishop used a virus against the X-Men, Emma was the only one who resisted against that, while Peter didn't)

    @oldnightcrawler: Colossus has consistently bleed in organic steel form, though. What is inconsistent about it is the fact he bleeds blood or some kind of energy. Emma on the other hand, bled once because of outside factors.

    She's a shape-shifter (sort of)... To make her mutation less noticeable and different, she makes herself look more human-like and she eats and drinks so that she can feel normal even though she doesn't need to!!

    @papad1992: that's exactly why I don't put her in the same category as Colossus or Emma, or even other shape shifters like Iceman or Dust; she's a more singular organism in that she can't (as far as we know) revert back to human form. It's something I always appreciated about her friendship with Rockslide, who's sort of more in that same category. It's interesting how they were two of the more human like characters, despite not being physically human at all.

    She was one of the first characters I loved initially when I first read New X-Men series right off the back because of her unique abilities and sleek look! I agree she's not in the category as Colossus or Emma power-wise but she kinda is on a more detailed scale because she doesn't need sustenance, much like Colossus and Emma...

    Although they would if they reverted to human form. Remember when Colossus reverted to human form when he was first trying to get over what he assumed was Kitty's death? Just eating plate after plate of food in that diner? haha! I loved that.

    the funny thing about that is, (I'm pretty sure) he actually did eventually get that tattoo, and it was just never mentioned (or ever seen) again.

    I don't think that's it. I thinks it's that creepy old dude with tattoo mental powers illustrating Colossus' thoughts on his chest.
