They call him the Iceman. That’s what his temperature is. Ice Cold. No Pulse.
Although his demeanor was psychopathically cold, his sobriquet “the iceman” came from a murder where he put the corpse on ice for a year, then dumped it hoping to confuse the coroner as to the time of death. His plan was foiled when the body was discovered before it was fully thawed. Another Kuklinski Klassic was disposing of a corpse under the bed in a seedy New Jersey motel. The room was rented out something like four times before someone complained of the stench and the corpse was found.
Damn it Miss Purl! That’s where I thought this was headed too… that Annie took issue with Val Kilmer’s choices in early movie roles.
I think I’m a bit disappointed that it’s not. 
(Yeah, I really, really did hate that film and Mr. Cruise should be ‘iced.’)
His name was Billy, and he didn’t start the fire.
Sure, now that Bobby Drake’s lost his mutant powers, you feel safe pitting him.
Thank you. That was my first thought, too.
Seriously, someone throw a dumbass a link, please. I have no fucking clue what in the hell any of these side jokes are about.
Oh yes, this too.
Ah…yet another Law & Order plot based on real events.
A Google search on “iceman” turns up this interesting site featuring a fun hobby.
Great pix.
He didn’t kill people just as hits. Basically, if you were involved in any sort of illegal activity with him, you died. He worked hard to cover up his tracks. What brought him down in the end was that he worked too hard to cover his tracks. As the deaths kept piling up, they all had one thing in common, association with Kuklinski.
I don’t believe that everyone he killed was a criminal but can’t state it for fact till I do some more research. It’s been awhile since the HBO documentaries on him. He once brought a victim out into the woods to be killed. When the man started to pray, Kuklinski told him he had 30 minutes. If God came down and changed things he would live, otherwise Kuklinski would kill him. 30 minutes went by with no miracle so Kuklinski killed him. He admitted it to be the only killing he regretted.
What? What are you talking about? There’s no such thing as House of M or Decimation, lalalala…
walks away with fingers in ears
Jeez guys, have some decorum. Don’t you think it’s a little too soon to be mocking Otzi?
Hey! He didn’t ask to be thawed out and then displayed in a zoo exhibit. Now you guys have to pit him!!! You are all going straight to hell.
Nope. The radical new technology he was victim of was called a “bow”.
Otzi might not have been the sharpest arrow in the quiver but I’m sure even he could have outrun a glacier.
Now that he’s dead, though, at least we know the world is a bit safer from STD’s caused by burst condoms. Unless he goes to a Rolling Stones concert.
He was already dead when the glacier engulfed his body.
I thought it was a helicopter.
