HeroClix: Mr. Freeze Joins ‘The Joker’s Wild’
“I will blanket the city in endless winter. First Gotham, and then the world!”
Before he became one of Batman’s most enduring villains Dr. Victor Fries was a cryogenicist that wanted to save his dying wife with cutting edge, freezing technology. An accident that happened while attempting to cure his beloved Nora left him unable to survive at temperatures above freezing. He’s immune to most toxins, is super strong, and extremely intelligent – and he’s bent on taking Batman and Gotham down.
Let’s check out some of what he can do on the tabletop…
At 90 points with six clicks of life, Mr. Freeze at first appears to be a simple, ranged attacker who can hit one target from a range of 5 squares, however, the further you look into his design, the more you will notice his versatility.
He has a trait called Try Not to Shatter My Frozen Friends, Boys which says that when Mr. Freeze hits with a ranged attack, give each hit character an action token. Additionally, after actions resolve, attach the Ice Wall ClixFX Marker to one of the hit characters, unless it’s already attached to another character. The Ice Wall Marker itself is a 3D element which maintains that as long as the marker is attached, that character can’t be moved or placed, and it modifies its defensive value by -2. The marker is removed at the end of that character’s turn, and that character is then either dealt 1 penetrating damage, or any adjacent character can be given a power action to remove the Ice Wall.
