Except for a few small alliances, the Arrowverse series has never seen all of them together at the same time. The Flash has introduced most of The Rogues throughout its long run but never officially had them teaming up. Mark's comment to Killer Frost about not being a thief helps separate him from Snart, even though he had to steal back his creation from Ivo Labs. Mark still gets to be an ice villain while also having his standalone mythology. That's why The Flash did the right thing by reinventing Chillblaine and instead have him connected to Killer Frost. Putting a cold gun in someone's hands doesn't make them qualified to carry Snart's title. Captain Cold is a unique character that doesn't benefit from having duplicates or copycats. The Arrowverse could have easily turned Mark into a Captain Cold 2.0, which wouldn't have been interesting. There have been multiple Chillblaines that have had brief runs throughout The Flash comics. The benefit of Chillblaine being a more diminutive villain in the books is that it gives The Flash free rein to create a new take on him. RELATED: Arrowverse's Flash Family: Every Member Explained The Flash avoids making Chillblaine a Snart clone by going about it this way, even though Mark's evidently a soft replacement for Captain Cold. By tricking Killer Frost, Mark used a neurogenic scanner to copy her powers for his ice gauntlets to work, giving Chillblaine a new origin story in how he operates as a cold villain. "Growing Pains," however, establishes Mark as a cryogenicist who is obsessed with Killer Frost's ice abilities. In the comics, Chillblaine had a history with Snart by using his cold technology while being in a romantic relationship with Captain Cold's sister, Golden Glider. While The Flash's Chillblaine could have easily come off as a Captain Cold clone or ripoff, the Arrowverse instead reinvented Mark to stand as a unique character. Chillblaine, a minor enemy in Flash's mythology. In The Flash season 7, episode 7, "Growing Pains," the DC drama introduced Jon Cor as Mark Blaine, a.k.a. Since that's unlikely to happen, The Flash is moving on by introducing a new ice villain into the Arrowverse from the DC Universe. From using a past version of Snart to Earth-X's Citizen Cold, the Arrowverse will never be able to use the original Captain Cold unless they undo his death. Ever since Legends of Tomorrow season 1 killed off Captain Cold, The Flash has had to use Wentworth Miller's DC character in other ways. The Flash introduces DC Comics' Chillblaine, who managed to become a character on his own by not copying the late Leonard Snart, a.k.a.
