Captain Cold, who freezes his victims to death, is contracted to kill the Flash. Ever since the live action series premiered, I always wonder how the writers will present other characters from The Flash Comics into the series. Captain Cold is one of the most recognizable villains in the Flash’s rogue gallery. In the series, he is portrayed as ruthless hit man who uses an experimental freeze gun to finish off his victims. A local crime boss employs him to eliminate the heads of other crime families and sets his eyes on another threat: The Flash. Not only does the Flash have to avoid this cold-hearted criminal but must also deal with an overly ambitious reporter. “Captain Cold” was one of my favorite episodes in the short-lived series. The story is well paced. The villain is nicely introduced into the episode. One of the most standout scenes was the one where Tina desperately tries to revive Barry after being struck by Captain Cold’s freeze gun. The episode has its share of humor and cheesy banter. The ending was well played out.
Very Cool Episode Involving One of The "Cool"est DC Villains Ever! hide show
This is one of the most interesting episode of this great, but short-lived series from 1991. This epusode has an interesting take on Captain Cold, one of the many ice-themed supervillains in the DC Comics Universe.
The story begins when Central City is hit with a heatwave, and some crime lords were discussing what to do. However, the AC Repairman who the crime lords hired turns out to be Captain Cold, a freeze gun-weilding hitman who is hired by a crime lord to not only put them on "ice", but to "ice" out The Flash!
I would go on with the rest of the episode, but I would not like to give the ending away. This episode is on Disc 5 of "The Flash-The Complete Series" on DVD now! But the only thing I wish for is that the Captain shoul wear his Eskimo outfit from the comics and cartoons...
the had changed capt:cold costume belevie it or not this looked more cool and his freezing gun was even cooler it wasnt a handgun like in comics.
he actually freezes the flash.
there were a few mistakes in the episode but you wont feel bad or think it's silly.
coooooooool ..... i will buy the DVD.
