Publication Info
Victor Fries, desperate to find a cure for his terminally ill wife, suffers a lab accident which lowers his body temperature, requiring him to wear a bulky cryogenic suit in order to survive. He turns to a life of crime, as his desperation drives him more and more to the brink of madness, even going as far as murder. Dead bodies of criminals are turning up all over Gotham City. It seems that someone has taken Batman's vigalante justice to an extreme. Her name is Helena Burtinelli, a woman seeking vengeance against one of Gothams crime families, who have employed the services of Floyd Lawton, a deadly assasain with designs on being the one to take down Batman. He and Jason Todd must work to stop Freeze and Lawton and save Burtinelli's soul, with the help of Dick Grayson, who has returned to Gotham with a new vigilante identity, Nightwing.
