The Flash Season 2: 9 Things You Need To Know About Killer Frost

Caitlin Snow is much more than she appears.

One of The Flash€™s greatest strengths is its supporting cast. Sure the effects are great, and the action is spectacular, but where would Barry be without Cisco€™s humour or Joe€™s love? More importantly, where would Barry be without Caitlin€™s practicality? With the original Harrison Wells gone and Martin Stein off being Firestorm again, Caitlin has been left to keep Team Flash focused. Of course, this is a trying time for the character, who€™s still having to cope with the death of her husband. This development is so important because of the dark nature that lurks beneath Caitlin€™s surface, waiting to manifest into the fully realized version of her comic book alter-ego. That character would be the icy villain Killer Frost, who€™s always had a beef with The Flash and is just crazy and powerful enough to make him shiver. So while we already know a great deal about her human persona, Dr. Caitlin Snow, many fans are still clueless about just who this villain is. We take you through her most memorable comic book exploits, explain her powers and show how she€™s stuck around for so long in the DC Universe. With Earth-2 and the particle accelerator around, it€™s only a matter of time before some version of the character shows up to terrorize The Flash, and this is the place to learn all about her.
