Born with cryogenic powers, Norwegian Tora Olafsdotter decided to leave her native country to pursue a Super Hero career as Ice. She soon formed a close friendship with fellow heroine Fire. Ice was selected as the Scandinavian member for the UN-sponsored Justice League International team. On their first mission to Peru, she was caught in a thermal blast from a giant alien robot, forcing the team to retreat. The JLI subsequently confronted the robot’s master, the alien resource-plunderer Peraxxus, and drove him away.
