Blizzard is the name of multiple supervillains in the Marvel Comics universe, all enemies and occasional allies of the superhero Iron Man. The first, Gregor Shapanka, was created by Stan Lee and Don Heck, and was also known as Jack Frost. The second, Donnie Gill, was created by David Michelinie and Bob Layton, and appeared as an enemy of Iron Man and a member of the Masters of Evil, and eventually joined the group of reformed villains known as the Thunderbolts. Two other minor characters have used the identity, an ex-criminal named Randy Macklin and an ally of Iron Man known only as Jim.

Famous quotes containing the word blizzard:
“Again and again, I struggled though the storm. Once I fainted—and it wasn’t in the script. I was hauled to the studio on a sled, thawed out with hot tea, and then brought back to the blizzard, where the others were waiting. We filmed all day and all night, stopping only to eat standing near a bonfire. We never went inside.... The blizzard never slackened.”
—Lillian Gish (1896–1993)
“And before, with banner red,
Through the blizzard snow unseen,
All unharmed by hail of lead,
With a step like snow so light,
Showered in myriad pearls of snow.
Crowned in wreath of roses white,
Christ leads onward as they go.”
—Alexander Blok (1880–1921)
“The greatest felony in the news business today is to be behind, or to miss a big story. So speed and quantity substitute for thoroughness and quality, for accuracy and context. The pressure to compete, the fear somebody else will make the splash first, creates a frenzied environment in which a blizzard of information is presented and serious questions may not be raised.”
—Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
