> Well, OK, they’ve apparently given the name of Killer Frost’s secret identity to this character, but have they indicated that they’re going to actually make her Killer Frost at some point? I mean, that is what this whole thread is kind of about – taking the name of a character in a comic book and giving it to a new character on the show.

They’ve subtly hinted at it. A line in one of the recent episodes about she and Ronnie being like ‘fire and ice’.
