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:
“The curse of hell upon the sleek upstart
That got the Captain finally on his back
And took the red red vitals of his heart
And made the kites to whet their beaks clack clack.”
—John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
“For, brother, know that this is art, and you
With a cold incautious sorrow stricken dumb,
Have your own vanishing slit of light let through,
Passionate as winter, where only a few may come:
Not idiots in the street find out the lees
In the last drink of dying Socrates.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
