Victor Fries (pronounced as freeze) was a cryogenicist, a scientist who studies subzero temperatures. He was proud of his work, but he was mostly proud of the love of his life, his wife, Nora. However, his life came crashing down when his wife was diagnosed with a rare degenerative disease. Refusing to let her go, Victor put Nora into cryogenic stasis (freezing her body in ice) until he could find a cure for her disease. After the funding for his research was cut off, Victor stumbled into an accident with his experiments. The accident altered his body to where he can only survive in subzero temperatures. If Victor were to go in a normal temperature area, it could kill him because he would be too hot. As a result, Victor created a suit to keep his body cold, leaving him secluded from the outside world. With no money left to fund his research, Victor felt he had no choice but to lead a life of crime to support his work. Every crime, everything he ever does, is for the sake of saving his wife. Mister Freeze is willing to do anything to accomplish his goal!
