History: Piotr Rasputin was born on the Soviet collective farm called the Ust-Ordynski Collective near Lake Baikal in Siberia. His superhuman powers emerged in adolescence. At first, Rasputin was content simply to use these powers to aid the other people of the Collective.

However, Rasputin was contacted by Professor Charles Xavier, founder of the X-Men, when Xavier was organizing a new team of mutant X-Men to help him rescue the original X-Men from the sentient island Krakoa. Rasputin agreed to leave the farm community in which he was born and raised to go to America with Xavier. Xavier gave Rasputin the code name "Colossus" and Rasputin aided Xavier's other new recruits in their battle against Krakoa. After the battle was won, Rasputin remained in the United States with the new X-Men while the rest of his family stayed on the farm.

Rasputin's family always remained in his thoughts. Shortly thereafter a woman known as Miss Locke kidnapped many of the X-Men's loved ones to use as hostages in order to force the X-Men to aid her in freeing her employer, Arcade, from captivity by one of Doctor Doom's robots. Among her captives was Colossus's younger sister Illyana, whom Locke had somehow kidnapped from the Siberian collective farm and transported to the United States. The X-Men freed Illyana from captivity, and she went to live with her brother Piotr (known as Peter in America) at Xavier's mansion. Due to her later captivity in a dimension known as Limbo where she spent years while only mere moments elapsed on Earth, Illyana became the adolescent sorceress known as Magik.

After Illyana was returned to her true Earth age, Colossus thought it would be better for Illyana if she went back to live with their parents. Sadly, her parents were slain and she was kidnapped by a mutant known as the Soul Skinner who hoped to genetically evolve Illyana to the point where she would have the use of her powers again. Colossus, with the help of the X-Men, saved Illyana and brought her back to the mansion.

Later, Illyana became the first tragic victim to be infected with the Legacy Virus and die from it. The deaths of his immediate family caused Colossus to rethink his position with the X-Men and join Magneto and his Acolytes, who had offered him an alternative to the X-Men's way of fighting and living.

His stay with Magneto was not long once he realized that Avalon was not the place for him, either. He left in search of the only person he felt truly cared for him, his former love and teammate Kitty Pryde, now a member of Excalibur. Colossus traveled to England, where he found Kitty in the arms of her new love, Pete Wisdom. Colossus, enraged, attacked Wisdom, and although the battle was short-lived, they both sustained minor injuries.

Colossus accepted Kitty's new life and chose to become a member of Excalibur. Once the team desolve Kitty, Colossus and Nightcrawler returned to the States and became active members of the X-Men.

Beast, one of his X-Men teammates, claimed to have found the cure for the Legacy Virus. Not knowing weather or not it worked Colossus injected himself with the cure. The result was fatal for him, but his actions allow a true cure for the virus to be found.
 
his sister died by the legacy virus and he took an injection of the virus so they could develop a cure for it, i think...
 
His sister was killed by a diesies and he killed him self to get a cure for it.
 
ok, guess i was a little late..... but you just gave a full history, so why it is going to be 'his month'?
 
Ultimate:o

*recieves flaming from old schoolers*

Now bendis better damn make him gay I I will kill him for wasting a gereat storyline!

I like regular Colossus better to answer a question.

Also I would bring back Synch myself but I can't think of a way to make it happen.

I like the Ultimate one a lot more. It may be because of the glossy pages Colossus is printed on now. :o No really, he is a pretty interesting character in Ultimate and he was cool in Ultimate War.
 
he just had a much better introduction in Ultimate than regular. I loved Tomorrow People!
 
Though I do like the original Colossus more I do think that they are doing a wonderful job with the Ultimate version. I hope they don't make him Gay but I wouldn't be against it if they did. My favorate seen is when he crushed Proteus with the car.
 
Giant sized X-Men is a classic comic book. Probably THE best book ever IMO
 
i agree that Giant-sized is a great classic, but ultimate Colossus is still a greater character
 
Giant-Sized is one comic I've always wanted to read but have never had the opertunity.

why shouldn't he be gay?

it's rule

he'd be an outsider amongst outsiders, the team would be iffy around him, whilst Xavier tried to get them toi understand the oxymoronity is that a word?!:o ) of their behavour to him, and human behavou to them.

then logan would be his normal self and still treat pter like normal, gotta love logan, he's not discriminate, he hates everybody equally:D
