I'm trying to gauge her fire absorption power and it's limit. At what point is she overwhelmed :

VS

1) Pyro (Marvel)

2) Sunfire/Human Torch (Marvel)

3) Effigy (DC), Firelord (Marvel)

4) Superman/Gladiator heat vision

I have no experience with this character so I'm looking for input from DC fans who know of her. I read that she was overloaded and killed by Firestorm's power and that Green Arrow beat her with "Greek Fire".

Probably stops at 3.

Galan007
Agreed.

Stops at 3 because(not sure about effigy) but firelords fire isn't real fire.

Galan007
It's not just fire that she absorbs, it's heat in general. She's a 'heat vampire'.

In fact, she was on her way to absobing all of the sun's heat, until FS stopped her. That's likely her best heat absorption feat.

WTF?! Would she even be capable of that? The only info I got on her is from wikias and those aren't too reliable half the time.

FS overloaded her right?

Galan007
In the instance I'm referring to, Frost was absorbing the sun's heat at an alarming rate (to the point that FS was worried about her destroying it.) He attacked her with one of his most powerful fusion blasts, but by that point her power had increased substantially thanks to all the heat she'd absorbed from the sun -- so she basically just shrugged it off.

FS ended up beating Frost by encasing her in an absolute zero prison, thereby cutting her off from any heat sources...

Normally she's defeated by figuring out how to deny or drain her of heat, not the opposite.

I don't think she's ever been overloaded... the original one died absorbing all of Firestorm's heat, but she was already dying (due to side-effects of her powers) and the heat transfer of all of Firestorm's heat was attempted specifically to save her life so even that likely wasn't what killer her.

And the second one had a boost from Neron at one point.


So no, I don't think she's going to get overloaded.

@Galan & Q99

Thank you both. Very informative posts! Now I got to hunt down some issues involving her.
