Before becoming Killer Frost, she was born as Crystal Frost. As a child, she was raised in an abusive home, constantly at the mercy of her mother and father. One night, however, as her parents moved in to physically assault her, Frost's meta-human abilities activated, freezing them both in place.

The emergence of her powers also turned her hair white and eyes ice blue. Upon seeing her parents at her mercy, she took a fire iron and proceeded to gleefully smash her frozen parents, effectively killing them.

Frost is chosen by Amanda Waller as a member of her Suicide Squad, tasked with tracking down Steel Maxum to retrieve the "Get out of Hell Free" card from him. They find him in a strip club, but before apprehending him, and you were by Killer Frost’s side, since you were also part of The Suicide Squad.
