**Victor Fries**, also known as **Mister Freeze** is a supervillain from *DC Comics*. He appeared in the first episode of *DEATH ARENA: Shortcut*, Mr. Freeze VS Frozone, where he fought against Frozone from *The Incredible* series.

## History

Years later, as an adult, Victor developed an interest in cryogenics and wrote his doctoral thesis on the first case of cryogenic stasis; that of Nora Fields. He became so obsessed with her that he believed he was in love with her and concocted a narrative that they were married, despite the two never having even met because Nora had been frozen decades prior. In fact, she was old enough to be Victor's *grandmother*. As part of his research to cure Fields, Fries experimented with the potent steroid Venom but had little success. After graduating, Fries continued his research of his "wife" Nora wherever her body was kept and started a career in the Wayne Enterprises cryogenics division. Fries was renowned for his work ,and, after Bruce Wayne's return to Gotham and the coincidental first appearance of the Batman, the two men had the opportunity to discuss Fries' findings. However, upon investigating, Wayne discovered that Fries was actually abusing the company's resources to solely focus on reviving Nora. Wayne called Fries out on his unethical research and his obsession over his supposed "wife", threatening to fire him.

Fries, furious at the thought of losing access to Nora, threw a chair at Wayne, which ruptured a pipe in his lab that covered him in cryo-fluid. Disfigured and mutated from the chemicals, Dr. Fries survived but could no longer live outside of sub-thermal temperatures. Therefore, he built himself a protective suit to survive at regular room temperatures. The man went mad and, determined to get Nora back and cure her, constructed a freeze ray to terrorize Gotham while he did so. Originally, Fries took the criminal alias **Mister Zero** before switching to a homophone of his last name **Mister Freeze**. Due to fluctuations of the timeline, Mr. Freeze's origin was revised so that Nora *was* his legal wife all along and that the two in fact knew each other before she was put into stasis.
