Actually it has been said Cold > Mr.Freeze and they have clashed before. Also I dont think Freeze can go absolute zero.

Shameless thread jack, here is the event in question :
Firestorm said she was about to destroy the Sun.
...And just for the lulz, here's how that event ended:

Cold has defeated Freeze on panel and been stated several time as his superior. I mean, he can get cold fields out, Batman can't even touch you with one of those.

I found this scan of particular interest:Per Mr. Freeze, Cold is THE only baddie whose tech is capable of creating absolute zero. Not too shabby.
Nice find.
But something about Captain Cold seems......off. I don't know. I think Rulk would annihilate him in a fight still.

BELOW absolute zero? O_oThat's like saying he can go slower than a full stop.
I guess it's a pretty impressive testimonial about his power, though.. It's hard to even consider, but his tech just might be capable of flash freezing other characters way outside his tier..
He's frozen Flash(es) before, so yes, he can freeze people way outside his tier.

Yeah, but Flash also has problems with Captain Boomerang, and his rogues gallery is kind of a joke by and large.
But Captain Cold looks like a legit threat.. Now I'm curious what would happen if he managed to hit Superman with a cold grenade, or his gun.. Superman himself trapped Bizarro Superman in a large chunk of ice with his freeze breath, and that probably wasn't anywhere near absolute zero..

Flash's rogues are actually very very formidable. They don't get the notoriety of Superman's or Batman's rogues, but they're often underestimated, which works out pretty well for them.
I can't speak for Superman, but I know Cold's managed to freeze Green Lantern before.
^ If Flash were frozen to 'az' he shouldn't be able to vibrate his molecules. *Shouldn't*.
Originally posted by zopzopIf Rulk can endure, and/or absorb, blasts from Cold's tech (which can generate temperatures below 'az', apparently) then yeah, he wins.

I don't think it's that the tech doesn't make it to absolute zero, as much as Flashes speed force makes for a special case.. (As you mention yourself)
During the time the future Flash tried and failed to fill his shoes, he actually reversed a freezing on his girl that should have endured forever, using his speed force to speed up the halted molecules.
As for Rulks heat, we can see from the Firestorm example, even intense heat won't necessarily melt a block of absolute zero, as the one holding Killer Frost maintained even in the middle of the sun.
