Mr. Freeze

Mr. Freeze (Dr. Victor Fries) is a Batman supervillain in comic books published by DC Comics. He first appeared in Batman #121 (February 1959)^[1] as the ice criminal Mr. Zero, but he was soon renamed "Mr. Freeze".^[2]

Dr. Victor Fries was a cryogenics expert in Gotham City who was caught in a laboratory accident while attempting to cure his terminally ill wife, Nora. The accident drastically lowered his body temperature to sub-zero levels, forcing him to wear a cryogenic suit in order to survive.
