Victor Fries (Earth-3064)

"Have you ever seen a flower die? Watched something that was once so beautiful, so full of life, collapse and rot from within?"

- - Mister Freeze to Hugo Strange

Doctor Victor Fries was a award winning cryogenicist who found himself having to save his dying wife Nora by putting her in cryogenic sleep. However, Victor's boss, Ferris Boyle, was more interested in having Fries' technology for weapon development, and attempted to kill Nora, which resulted in a lab accident that gave Victor ice-like physiology. Motivated only by the desire to save Nora's life, Victor became Mister Freeze, clashing with Batman numerous times, but later finding his redemption when he aided the dark knight into saving his life and Gotham.
