The Flash season 7 introduction of Chillblaine avoided making him a Captain Cold copy. 1 / 10

Chillblaine is a lesser-known foe in The Flash comics where he used Snart's cold technology. 2 / 10

The Arrowverse could easily have made Chillblaine a lite Captain Cold. 3 / 10

Instead, they made a cryogenicist obsessed with Frost's ice powers as he tricks her. 4 / 10

Chillblaine used a neurogenic scanner to replicate Frost's powers for his ice gauntlets to work. 5 / 10

This gives Chillblaine his own unique backstory rather than just use Cold's old weapons. 6 / 10

With Chillblaine not having a defined origin story in DC, the Arrowverse gave him one. 7 / 10

This way, they let Chillblaine be his own character instead of a Snart clone. 8 / 10

It also allowed Team Flash, Frost particularly, to have a new ice villain to battle. 9 / 10

Only time will tell what else is in store for The Flash's Chillblaine. 10 / 10
