So I’m assembling a team of superheros with ice-based powers to form the Just Ice League. So far I have recruited Iceman, Fro-zone, Zan\*, Ice T, and Elsa. Who else do I need?

\*and his dead-weight but necessary sister.

Not published under the DC imprint: Planetary’s Elijah Snow.

Doctor Permafrost, from the TOM STRONG comics, does the ‘reformed villain’ bit.

Well, semi-reformed. I mean, upon getting stuff explained to him, he’s reliably wound up helping our hero — and with his medical know-how and freeze-ray gun and secret lair, he’s been pretty useful in lesser-of-two-evils situations. But he’s not exactly going out on patrol to foil purse-snatchers and get kittens out of trees.

DC also has Commander Cold (an alternate universe version of Capt. Cold) who’s a good guy mostly.

_Commander_ Cold (who I mentioned) is actually from the future, not an alternate universe - he’s a (former) member of the Renegades, a 25th Century police squad based on the Rogues. He IS only MOSTLY a good guy, though.

The good alternate universe versions of him are _Citizen_ Cold (Flashpoint comics universe, TV Earth-X) and Officer Len Snart (Comics Earth-3).

The next glaring omission is the famous old guy with the magic belly button - the Abdominal Snowman.

That one idiotic wonder twin who could turn into ice/water things. Shape of, an Ice Dildo! So I guess that means you need the other wonder twin so that he could actually activate his icy powers. Form of, a rabid wombat! And since you now have both of those idiots, you might as well take that brain dead space monkey, Gleek.

He still steals, but fights world-ending threats, right? It’s been a while since I read Flashpoint.
