Colossus Fine Art Statue

The amazing X-Men Danger Room Sessions Fine Art Statue series continues with its fifth member, the mighty steel-skinned mutant COLOSSUS!  Born Piotr “Peter” Rasputin, the mutant who would become an X-Man grew up on a struggling farm in the Soviet Union.  His first comic book appearance took place in 1975’s Giant-Size X-Men #1, when Professor Xavier visited the small farm to recruit Peter.  At first denying his powers, the mutant revealed his true abilities when a runaway tractor threatened his sister.  Transforming into a living steel form with vast strength and durability, Colossus would join the X-Men and serve with distinction, which of course meant lots of practice in the Danger Room.  Ever since the early days of Marvel Comics’ mutant adventures, “X” teams have trained together in the ultra high tech facility known as the Danger Room, equipped with state of the art adaptive combat and athletics routines that challenge each participant in unique ways.  The training facility has been featured prominently in X-Men comics over the years, as well as in various cartoons and the third X-Men film.
