If Colossus gets a solo-series, this would be my preffered creative team.

Writing: Brian Wood rotating with Kieron Gillen.

Art: David Lopez rotating with Olivier Coipel.

Looks like he's going to be Cyttorak's avatar again after Round 9's performance.

As soon as he lost the Phoenix Force he'd gone bald again...

Also get Piotr and Kitty back together, Iceman should get with Warbird.

@Pwok21: Yes. The power of The Phoenix gave him the ability to put a toupee on his head.

@Rabbitearsblog:

They may not but that is what I would want to happen.

@Rickbarry:

When possessed by Cytorrak he was bald, he gets Phoenix powers and he suddenly has hair again.

He loses Phoenix powers and is bald again.

IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE.

He will become the next Apocalypse.. : )

He very well could die. The third half of the All-New X-men cover is the extinction team. Colossus is noticeably left off the page. If you take that along with the fact that he might disappear from the recon team in october and Cain suddenly being the Juggernaut once more. It's a decent bet that Colossus might be the one that dies in AvX.

@Rabbitearsblog: Well that's just awful! I don't know why they would keep him off any of the teams as he's one of the more popular X-men and pretty much their only brick on the roster. I'd check out of Marvel for some time if they either kill him off or write him off.

@Rabbitearsblog: I'm sure they could run storylines without him. It's more about that Marvel Now is supposed to be this new and dynamic thing and they pretty much end/start it with making Piotr 'Walk the plank' again. I do hope I'm wrong and I certainly hope that if he lives he's not written out of the loop. The editor did seem to mention that we should 'keep our ears peeled' for him sooner rather than later.

he has not shown up on the all new x-men yet. : (

@Rabbitearsblog: I doubt it. Colossus more prominent roles are in dire types of storylines. He takes a backseat in the more lighthearted tone in comics. I'll honestly be shocked if they kill him off again. Surely there's a place for him somewhere. He's the premier strongman for the X-verse!

@Rabbitearsblog: *Shrugs* I've no idea. I sincerely hope they put him somewhere if he doesn't die. Possibly in Uncanny Avengers or even Legacy. Surely there's a spot there for him in Legacy if he's not being put in All New X-men.

@Rabbitearsblog: I'm just throwing out ideas. I honestly doubt he would go to Westchester in his current predicament. He wouldn't go after Schism because he was afraid of being around children. Toss in a Kitty/Iceman pairing and he'd be foolish to show up.

Oh dear god this doesn't bode well...

@allthatsgeek: I honestly don't think that they'll kill him off as the billing is one of "Marvel's greatest heroes" dying. While Piotr is pretty big in the X-verse he's relatively unknown outside of that circle. So I doubt it'd be him. 'Course I could be wrong. I'm still holding onto the editor from marvel saying we need to keep our ears peeled for him after AvX. Hopefully that's not misdirection.

how could he die? He's the juggernaut.

I really hope Colossus won't die.

Me too.

Won't be the Juggernaut for long but still I agree I don't think he will die

@Rickbarry:

Wh..wh.where is Colossus?? He no there.

I bet it makes you sad.

I've heard that Colossus might play a big role in 2013. I wonder what this means?

@god_spawn: Party foul, man! Your characters make it away free and clear and mine get crapped on! *Cries in a corner.*

@Rickbarry: Remember what Alonso said, keep your ears peeled and he still may leave the team in his fall bout with Storm or something. He's not big enough to kill off at this point.

Granted, I'm glad Cyclops lives.

But if Colossus dies, I'm gonna cry.

@god_spawn: I do recall what Alonso said, but if I'm supposed to keep my ears peeled for Colossus...shouldn't I be seeing him somewhere if he lives?! The editor made a comment about other characters losing face time so I'm assuming he's going to be a mainstay member elsewhere. At least that's what I'm hoping.

*Bru fists on Emma and Scott surviving.* Hopefully the Namor triangle is finished.

@Rickbarry: *Brofists.* We'll see :D.

so Cyclops or Colossus?

Tough call, like making me choose between children, but I gotta say Piotr irks out the win here, he has been my favorite superhero period since I first started reading comics as a wee one.

@god_spawn:

Well, from what I've just recently read, Colossus was mandated to be put on Wood's Recon team. It's obvious there's some type of plan as he might leave the team soonish. I don't see why they'd make Wood put him on his team for a half dozen issues only to kill him off. 'Course I'm trying to use logic in the Marvel U. This is a dangerous thing.

@Rabbitearsblog: @god_spawn: @allthatsgeek: Well, on a slightly more cheerful note I found this on Tom Brevoort's formspring page. He seems to indicate Colossus isn't getting whacked.

http://www.formspring.me/TomBrevoort/q/364762719003361742

As well as comments about future X-titles. Should I get my hopes up for some type of Colossus comic?!

@Rabbitearsblog: I doubt it. I only say so because I want him to have one, but it does seem like he'll be somewhere.

Now we know what's going to happen to Colossus after AvX, he will be with Cable on X-Force. I wonder how he'll do in that book?

He will continue to kick much ass after AVX!

@evilvegeta74 said:

Yep!

@Rabbitearsblog: I certainly hope so, but I want to see him used in a more personal way to develop his character. It's nice that he's in the action (usually always is), but we've not had much development aside from Gillen over the years.

@allthatsgeek: @Rabbitearsblog: I checked out Gillen's formspring and it seems we have a mild surprise for Petey as well as some answers about the abrupt breakup between Kitty and himself.

http://www.formspring.me/KieronGillen/q/375592615002789080

You built a great foundation with Colossus as the avatar of Cyttorak. Sadly, you didn't really develop it or had any real character growth for him. I'd rather see Petey dead than whining again. Can't a writer have him grow some balls and ditch the chicks?

Gillen: I think you'll be surprised where I leave him.

http://www.formspring.me/KieronGillen/q/375594694303829508

Kieron, are you ever going to tell us why you broke up Colossus and Kitty Pryde? I'm fairly curious about it.

Gillen: I think by the end of Uncanny (or consequences) the meaning will be seen by implication.

So he's at least trying to tie up his loose ends before Bendis runs the title off in a ditch.

I'm in. If Gillen says we'll be surprised, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. hell, cable, forge, domino and colossus as a team alone has me on board.

From the last couple of images of him since the marvel now announcments he has his hair back and no signs of anything Juggernaut related in sight. The first being the the Cable and X Force cover and the second being the new variant cover to AvX Consequences #3 (pic below) which was just released today. So he may just be done with the juggs thing.

I would prefer it. I'm happy to see him though period in the consequences, because he has alot of loose ends to tie up in this event.

@Blood1991: Ya, I would to. I really felt that the whole Juggs thing really took away the compassion and gentle giant nature that made him cool.

I feel that Marvel has all, but forgotten that aspect of him. It was such a big part of his character. He was gentle, but prone to violence because he was emotional about the events going on around him. I always felt that out of every X-Man Colossus had the most emotion behind his actions.

@Blood1991: Couldn't have said it better myself. It also always seemed that when things would start to pick up for the character again, it would just be swept away by writer changes and what not. Hopefully we get some good classic emotion and consistency with em.

The Giant Size roster has seen hell unfortunately. Wolverine is a mess, Storm and Colossus are getting better, but still aren't quite themselves. At least Colossus has progressed forward some, but I will have to see where Cable's X-Force takes him before I say that is good or bad lol.
