Tommy Flowers spent eleven months designing and building Colossus at the Post Office Research Station, Dollis Hill, in North West London. After a functional test, Colossus Mk 1 was delivered to Bletchley Park in late December 1943 / January 1944, was assembled there by Harry Fensom and Don Horwood, and was working in early February 1944. Superhuman Strength: Ultimate Colossus possesses vast superhuman strength sufficient to lift in far in excess of a 100 tons easily, demonstrated by his ability to lift a Russian submarine weighing thousands of tons off the sea-bed, stop an oncoming train and his resistance to Magneto's magnetic control while in his armoured form was such that he was able to overpower his control, and defeat him. He even once managed to tear Wolverine's left leg off with little effort (it should be noted that the Earth-1610 version of Adamantium is not nearly as durable as that of Earth-616). However the most incredible feat of strength that he has ever performed is when he tossed an enormously huge Sentinel hundreds of feet into the air and even managed to do that from an awkward position and while the Sentinel was applying pressure, trying to squash him.[13] He has also defeated the likes of Thor in physical combat. He is one of the physically strongest beings in the Ultimate Universe.

Colossus also traveled to the Crimson Cosmos and asked Cyttorak to free him from his role as the Juggernaut due to Colossus serving as the avatar of the Phoenix Force as well. Cyttorak refused, stating that Colossus was his favourite avatar in thousands of years because as a hero, Colossus engaged in destructive battles constantly. Because of this, Cyttorak wanted Colossus to remain his avatar, stating that as a force of rebirth and destruction, he and the Phoenix Force were not incompatible. Colossus tried to use his power to force Cyttorak to release him, but as a demon lord in his own realm, Cyttorak was too powerful, and he returned Colossus to Earth. [95] Gannon, Paul (2006). Colossus: Bletchley Park's Greatest Secret. London: Atlantic Books. ISBN 1-84354-330-3. Colossus was one of numerous mutants who moved to Krakoa after Charles Xavier and his allies used the island to establish a new mutant nation. [34] During a mission in Russia to rescue mutants, Piotr was severely beaten by the government's anti-mutant forces. [122] He was later retrieved by the Marauders. [35] Following this incident, Piotr opted to live a more peaceful life. He moved away from mainland Krakoa to grow Krakoan medicine in the Savage Land. [123] [124] In the late fourth century BC, Rhodes, allied with Ptolemy I of Egypt, prevented a mass invasion staged by their common enemy, Antigonus I Monophthalmus.

Colossal Legacy

Superhuman Stamina: Also, while in armored form, Colossus' musculature produces considerably less fatigue toxins than the musculature of a normal human. At his peak, he can physically exert himself at peak capacity for several days before the buildup of fatigue toxins in his blood begins to impair him. [133] He also does not need to breathe while transformed, but it is believed that he could not survive for long in a vacuum. [41] Modern engineers have put forward a plausible hypothesis for the statue's construction, based on the technology of the time (which was not based on the modern principles of earthquake engineering), and the accounts of Philo and Pliny, who saw and described the ruins.

While on this, I'm not exactly certain what the difference would be in Peter's strength between his Ultimates and 616 counterparts, but it should be noted that, in most cases, heroes powers and abilities seem to be fairly comparable in both worlds. The wiki quote below speaks specifically to the Ultimates version, but its not inconceivable that standard Colossus is somewhere within a similar range. Juggernaut is a term that originates from the Hindu god Jagannath, which means “lord of the world.” In modern usage, it refers to a massive, unstoppable force or entity that is difficult to control or defeat. The term is often used to describe a powerful political or economic force, such as a corporation or government, that is able to dominate its competitors and exert significant influence over society. Define Colossus Colossus was preceded by several computers, many of them being a first in some category. Colossus, however, was the first that was digital, programmable, and electronic. The first fully programmable digital electronic computer capable of running a stored program was still some way off - the 1948 Manchester Small Scale Experimental Machine.
