Reunited with Colossus
Colossus later return to the Savage Land and saw a much more matured Nereel, now head tribesman. She also had a young son also named Peter (although Colossus was never told about his name). Although it was never acknowledged, it is strongly suggested with many hints that Peter jr. is the son of Colossus. Despite this, Colossus never had any knowledge of his him being a father. Longshot deduced that Colossus was Peter jr's father, but promised Nereel not to reveal this to Colossus.
Mr. Sinister , who has shown interest in the Rasputin family, is unaware of the existence of Peter jr.
