Marvel has been evoking Fallen Angels in the run-up to Hickman so I wouldn't be surprised if some long-lost characters made a return (plus, yeah, the upcoming Fallen Angels title).

yeah i always found that colossus scene really harrowing. a rare case where it was so clearly a break from the character's established nature/code that it felt like an intentionally traumatic breaking point, and at least in that one issue, not like a gratuitous "grim n gritty" turn as it would for similar developments in the early 90s (see green lantern mention above). unfortunately this was followed by a sort of drifty period for the title, with colossus recovering from injuries off-camera for a year, then showing up just in time to die in dallas and be reborn in australia. iirc it never *really* felt like it got followed up on.... one of many casualties of claremont's late-80s storytelling and the growing x-stable.

(and yeah colossus had already killed proteus a hundred issues back but idk this just seemed so intense!)

i guess the larger point of this thread for me is that if you are a superhero, almost without exception, someone is going to draw a picture of you killing someone else.
