Captain Cold, real name Leonard Snart, is a comic book villain created by John Broome and Carmine Infantino as one of the rogues of Flash. He is a leader of the Rogues. A fan favorite, Captain Cold has served as a bitter enemy to the Silver-Age Flash Barry Allen, both enemy and grudging friend to the modern-day Flash Wally West, and one of the killers of the fourth Flash Bart Allen.
Cold was the second supervillain to face the Silver-Age Flash in Showcase #8 (February 1957).
IGN's list of the Top 100 Comic Book Villains Of All Time List ranked Captain Cold as #27.

Famous quotes containing the words captain and/or cold:
“Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.”
—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
“The eyes of strangers
Are cold as snowdrops....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
