Captain Cold is one of my favorite villains in comics. The respect he and Flash have for each other is not something you see everyday in comics. Can't wait for LOT. :)
Such an underrated villain! Wentworth Miller is doing a great job as Cold on CW's The Flash, would love to see someone like Tom Hardy or Guy Pearce take on the role in the DC Cinematic Film Universe!
I like how old comic book villains origins were "I have super powers and I want to steal shit" instead of "I had a bad childhood, please feel bad for me"
Why do people always hate on Flash villians? The best I can guess is because they have goofy names and costumes. Flash's villians are so interesting though. The Rogues have had so many good stories. Captain Cold in particular has a mutual respect with the Flash. They have been enemies and allies on many occasions. Also to the people saying villians Captain Cold and Heatwave are rip-offs of Batman villians Mr. Freeze and Firefly: Captain Cold was created on June 1957 where as Mr. Freeze (at the time named Mr. Zero) was created on February 1959. Firefly was created a decade before Heatwave, but was nothing like the Firefly you know today. Instead of being a flamethrowing pyromaniac like Heatwave always was, Firefly was "The master of a thousand lights" and would shoot rainbow colors. He didn't become a pyromaniac until decades later. I'm not knocking Mr. Freeze or Firefly. But Mr. Freeze was way less intersting than Cold prior to the Animated Series. I don't know, it's just kind of sad to see people always hating on Flash's villians. They are really cool in their own cheesy charm. I love Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell as Cold and Heatwave. They compliment each other so well.
DCMarvelFanGuy. I definitely appreciate your opinion because you're the only person who's convinced me to have another look at flash villains. And for that I thank you
Captain Cold is one of those villians that isn't really that bad or evil he just wants to make a buck he isn't Evil or a psychopath like others who want total destruction or domination he'll also help people out like he did in Forever Evil series while others helped fir personal reasons he was the only villian who was concerned for central city and helped out
@@sjmhadsock4586 yeah, you have a point. He is a criminal, sure. But he actually has morals and standards. Yes, he steals, destroys, and has killed a few people (never innocent bystanders), but he does so with restraint. He has also gone pretty far out of his way to actually HELP people on many occasions.
He's a Lawful evil(almost neutral) villain with cool ice gear/powers. How is he not likable? I mean the man if nudge a bit could have been a superhero.
I liked that! Have him and the rogues more character. Especially the part about him being the only one that really got his powers in a good way. the rest were totally screwed.
Fun fact captain cold is one of the few villains to create subzero based technology. Something even the likes of Mr.Freeze is unable to do. While he might not be the greatest ice themed villain (mainly because there are a few villains like say killer frost who can use and manipulate ice to a greater extent.) But he is one of the best in the supervillain community.
Who else knows the 1990s Flash was John Wesley Shipp who is playing the role of Earth-3's Flash aka Jay Garrick and the late Henry Allen in the current CW The Flash series?
Can somebody explain how old Captain Cold caused The Flash any troubles? Couldn't Flash just run really fast and grab his cold gun before he even noticed?
Well I'm kinda new to Flash comics so I just wondered if there was some kind of explanation to this. Does that gun like radiate cold beam sphearically so that when Flash comes close he becomes more slow? If not, then why the hell Flash underutilizes his powers?
+Ylis Vauhdis The gun can cool things on a molecular level. Even if the flash is fast, the second Snart pulls the trigger, anything around it begins to freeze. When the gun is shot directly at the Flash or around him, it slows him down. That's why he's such a threat. Snart can literally slow down, or stop the Flash.
+C. Crave The thing is, that when Flash is fighting characters who are not just normal humans, he runs faster than the human eye can register. Like when he's fighting someone like Darkseid, Superman or Reverse Flash. So he easily could run and take the gun before Captain Cold even realizes what has happened, he doesn't because that wouldn't make for an interesting fight for the readers.
Mr. Freeze has even stated that Snart's knowledge on sub-zero temperatures and his cold gun are more advanced than his own. Captain Cold can build a cold gun from scratch using simplae materials from in hardware store in just 30 minutes. That's impressive.
What is it with ice characters and puns? Captain Cold, Mr. Freeze, Sub-Zero etc. "Now you will feel death's COLD embrace." "ICE to meet you." "I'm gonna put you on ICE."
I've never understood how anyone with any kind of gun could ever pose a serious threat to the Flash. Especially a guy who seems to like to talk a lot before he pulls the trigger.
can someone explain how is he a threat to flash. shouldn't flash be able to take the gun out his hand before he even shoots. even in the tv series it look improbable
+zero they explain it, that cold makes molecules more dense, so the closer Flash gets to the cold gun, the slower he gets. So by the time he's right in front of Snart he would in theory be as slow as anyone else. Why he can't just grab Heatwave's gun is anyone's guess though. (maybe because he's still standing close to snart.)
Actually, he has killed a crooked police officer who was using a similar weapon to kill of rivals for a promotion and framing Cold for the crimes and the copycat Chillblaine, who murdered Snart's sister Lisa/Golden Glider.
Please do the origins of: The Shadow, Captain Boomerang, Mirror Master, Vandal Savage, Firestorm, Killer Frost, Sebastian Shaw and the Hellfireclub, Vigilante, Black Knight andShining Knight
Dude, DC takes over 5 shows. They dont have that much money since their expenses mostly go for thr CGI. Plus, I think its pretty cool. The parka is a great accessory, it shows that he's afraid of showing his scars. That no matter what, he's still scared of his father.
A sketch from Robot Chicken had Mr. Frieze wondering how highschool dropouts were able to duplicate what took a Ph.D. scientist like him years to create.
I imagine Captain Cold, Mr. Freeze and Captain Cold all breaking into a vault or a lab at the same time, from different locations (different walls, ceiling, floor, etc). They then look at each other and say "Cold powers got you this far too, right?" Then they bicker on how to divide the loot as Catwoman or some cold power virtual unknown comes in and snatches it from under them.
Yet no mention of how he became sort of friends with Wally West the third Flash once he realised he wasn't Barry nor the fact he murdered the fourth Flash Bart Allen
For New 52 powers, It wasn't actually an EM explosion. Dr Elias, a new Flash villain, fused the Rogues with their weapons. Now Captain Cold, Heatwave, Weather Wizard, and Mirror Master have their powers infused and Golden Glider is now basically a ghost.
SO Captain Cold's initial is CC,which also stand for "Crowd Control" in gaming language.And he specialise in snaring and slowing his enemies,that a wierd coincidence.
Michael Champion was great as Captain Cold in 1990 series. I wish they bring him for cameo/supporting role in the new one, like they did with John Wesley Shipp, Amanda Pays, Vito D'Ambrosio and Mark Hammil. Wentworth Miller is good in the role, as well, though. He makes a great duo with Purcell's Heatwave.
I get why they call him "Captain" Cold (Leader of the Rogues), but i still like to call him "Cold Chill" (sounds cooler (no pun intended)) because the name seems to sync with his sometime partner Heat Wave. Cold Chill and Heat Wave. Catchy, like Bebop and Rocksteady.

@@LowellLucasJr. Yeah I also like Flash villains
My favorite are Captain Cold and Godspeed

The flash had introduced me to my most favorite DC villians
If my last name was Snart I'd totally become a villain.
+MrGeekFreek if my first name was Leonard i would become a villain. xD
And if I had a father who's last name was Snart and my name was Lisa then I'd love to learn ice skating.

He's a Lawful evil(almost neutral) villain with cool ice gear/powers.
How is he not likable? I mean the man if nudge a bit could have been a superhero.
In DC's Legends of Tomorrow he turned from the path of the villain and became a hero...and he also fell in love with Sara Lance.
New 52 they turned him into Subzero.
I didn't mind that! He was still true to the Captain Cold character.
I liked that! Have him and the rogues more character. Especially the part about him being the only one that really got his powers in a good way. the rest were totally screwed.
Marquis de Restam I don't mind it either, just odd to see them turn him from a guy who's basically a smaller time Mr.Freeze to a less ninja Sub Zero.
He lost those powers not long ago.
Hey deuce how dose it feel not being in Hollywood undead anymore

3:23 - later that ability was removed during the Forever Evil arc, and he had to rebuild his cold gun
He's definitely an awesome villain! And the fact that Heat Wave is his frequent partner in crime/best friend, makes it even more interesting.

I thought I was the only one
+pie for win kekekek
I was about to comment that
What?????
Did I miss something at 4:20?
I've always liked the rogues (heatwave, mirror master, captain cold, captain boomerang)
The way Wentworth Miller portrays Captain Cold is just amazing as both villain and hero
Can somebody explain how old Captain Cold caused The Flash any troubles? Couldn't Flash just run really fast and grab his cold gun before he even noticed?
why should it make any logical sense?
here we are talking about superheroes pal. thats enough on its own.

At last, thank you so much keep adding more villains of the flash.
can you do an origins on captain boomerang?
What is it with ice characters and puns? Captain Cold, Mr. Freeze, Sub-Zero etc.
"Now you will feel death's COLD embrace."
"ICE to meet you."
"I'm gonna put you on ICE."
This is were I came for every research to know more about the whole origins. It really helps a lot for me to get to know them better.
he's a villain, but he does have a code of arms, not hurting innocent civilians, i can respect that
You could say he's pretty, COOL!!
I need to go outside....
and COOL down
+greengiant994 Like the Otto Preminger version of Mr. Freeze from the live action 1960s series says: "COOL!"
greengiant994 lol
Captain Cold (in the Flash and legends of tommorow at least) turns good and actually sacrifices himself for the legends.
yeah but then he turns evil when he comes back
me: i have a cold ;-; what should i do
brother: you shouls play injustice 2 if your cold
me: good thinking brother
I've never understood how anyone with any kind of gun could ever pose a serious threat to the Flash. Especially a guy who seems to like to talk a lot before he pulls the trigger.
His gun emits a 'Cold Field' that will stop bullets, cause a normal human full body frostbite, and reduce the Flash to a much slower pace.
"He died a hero"- Ray Palmer
"A Legend"- Barry Allen
Captain Cold.... Don't worry he sounds way cooler than you think.
Pun not intended
+GOOBERNATER GOOB Of course it wasn't

I love The Flash's version of Captain Cold, Wentworth is amazing at playing him and he's my favourite character he's very cool :D
These freezing cold ice puns make me shiver with distaste.

Wentworth Miller the best Captain Cold ever
In fact I am a very big fan of Captain Cold. I even went as him to the Dutch Comic con
and Im planning to do the same this year.
Mr freeze used to be called Mr cold, but fries didn't think it was cool enough.
Please do the origins of: The Shadow, Captain Boomerang, Mirror Master, Vandal Savage, Firestorm, Killer Frost, Sebastian Shaw and the Hellfireclub, Vigilante, Black Knight andShining Knight
This sure gave me chills. Ok I'll stop
Captain Cold is one of my favorite DC Comics villains.
I hate his hood in the Flash tv show. It looks so goofy
+jefferson steelflex Yeah,,, they really cheaped-out on CC's outfit. Missed a great opportunity to make him look super coold.

They could have him wear a hoodie like he does in New 52.
I think it looks cool 🤷🏻♀️
I do enjoy the performance his actor gives in the newer Flash TV series. He overacts to an enjoyable degree.
"capable of obtaining temperatures of absolute zero and slowing things down to a molecular level"
Those two are the same thing
poor man's mr. freeze
Hell no lol dude is fucking badass
I love both but Cold was created two years before Freeze, so it's technically the other way around.
+DCMarvelFanGuy Too bad both have said "The ice man cometh."
RedWorkerKZ: Except better than Mr. Freeze.
He's beaten Mr. Freeze in the past. His weaponry is far superior compared to Freeze
Captain cold: I'm the COOLEST supervillain!
Mr. Freeze: hold my beer.
I think it's pretty cool that he has teamed up with the Flash's new team (I forgot the name, has Green Arrow in it).
Captain cold became a hero after joining the legends of tomorrow
Snart:I Love This Game And I'm Very Good At It
Thank you Watchmojo but don't forget about the other rogues Captain Boomerang, The trickster, and Gorilla Grodd.
uh, I'm sure he's a villain
Could you please do one for Golden Glider?
You don’t want to give this Flash bad guy the cold shoulder.
