a5c7b9f00b Batman and Batgirl hunt Mr. Freeze who is on a destructively nihilistic campaign. Mr. Freeze really gets the short end of the stick in &#39;Cold Comfort&#39;; what used to be the show&#39;s best villain is reduced to monster movie shtick. And this after we&#39;d gotten a decent farewell in &quot;SubZero&quot;. <br/><br/>But here he is fronted by two henchbabes, very nearly spouting one-liners. It&#39;s not a bad episode, per se, but it&#39;smediocrethey get.<br/><br/>What it really boils down to is that, with all of the new characters brought in for the overhauled fourth season, Freeze deserved to be left alone.<br/><br/>5/10 Yep, this is the episode that everyone loves to rip apart because Mr. Freeze is just a head. Is that a ridiculous concept, yes, I&#39;ll agree with that, but need I remind you that this is a series where a man got turned into a clay-like humanoid creature that can transform into other people and objects. Now sure, your suspension of disbelief has to be pretty high to not think that Freeze&#39;s whole body dissolved except for his head which is totally able to function despite missing 99% of his organs. But whatever, it&#39;s just one scene that only effects the episode&#39;s climax, it&#39;s not that bad. Also, I now know where &quot;Batman: SubZero&quot; plays into the DCAU, I always thought it was just a side story. It might be messed up that Nora didn&#39;t take him back after all he did for her, but I guess that was just an excuse to use Freezea villain again. This story might be pretty weak, and have some weird moments to it, but I wouldn&#39;t call it bad. I think the action makes up for it&#39;s other shortcomings. I can name 14 episodes of &quot;Batman: The Animated Series&quot; that are 10 times worse than this.
