Synopsis for "Heart of Ice"

A number of cold related crimes have been surrounding GothCorp and Batman deduces where the criminals will strike next. When he arrives at the place he is attacked by a man with a freezing gun and a special suit. The man called himself Mr. Freeze and was stealing equipment from GothCorp to build a big freezing gun. Freeze managed to escape and Batman investigated further the case and discovered that Freeze was a former employee at GothCorp.

The CEO of GothCorp, Ferris Boyle was having a ceremony to receive a humanitarian award. Batman infiltrates the GothCorp building in order to find out the truth and discovered that Freeze was a scientist named Victor Fries who was working on cryogenic investigations. He used GothCorp resources to cure his dying wife Nora and Boyle interrupted the process apparently killing Nora and causing an accident that would leave Fries incapable of living outside of a sub-zero environment and the suit would help him survive. Freeze discovered Batman and incapacitated him so he can have his revenge over Boyle.

Freeze completed his freezing machine and was freezing the entire GothCorp building. Batman managed to break free and stopped Freeze's henchmen from freezing everything. Freeze then got to the building's top where the Humanitarian Award ceremony was begin held. He attacked Boyle but Batman arrived just in time to stop Freeze. Batman broke the glass-helmet covering Freeze's head with a can of hot chicken soup that Alfred gave Batman earlier. The temperature difference shattered the glass and let the room-temperature air into Freeze's suit and paralyzed him. Batman then revealed the truth about Ferris Boyle and gave the evidence to the media and he left congratulating Boyle over his award that he now won't be getting and not freeing him from the ice.

Later in Arkham Asylum, Freeze laments while watches a ballerina effigy that reminds him of Nora while Batman watches the scene from a nearby roof top.
