Heart of Ice-Empire Strikes Back comparison

[Dark Knight Detective]

Anyone ever noticed several similarities the HOI episode had to TESB, quite a good many actually, & if anyone wants to make more comparisons then go right ahead.

1. Mr. Freeze & Darth Vader
    Darth Vader is forever encased in a suit of armor, needed for life support & scarred from burns
    Mr. Freeze depends on a cryogenetic suit to keep his body at sub-zero temperature as a result of a "lab accident" by Ferris Boyle

2. If you noticed the goon that gets accidentally frozen by Mr. Freeze, he's put into a chamber of warm water, same as when Luke Skywalker is put into the bacta tank to revive from the sub-zero temperature & wampa facial scars.

3. Darth Vader can be seen as a tragic villain; he was destined to go to the Dark Side, even against his own will, but did it to save Padme & their children. Mr. Freeze is a tragic villain as he suffered a "freak accident" & his wife Nora became terminally ill. He becomes a criminal to avenge himself & Nora for the wrong done to them.

4. After his transformation, Darth Vader becomes a rather cold individual, twisted & evil, more machine than man. Mr. Freeze loses his emotions after his transformation & is willing to kill anyone who gets in his way of vengeance.

There's probably more to add, that is if anyone wants to speak.

Also, Mark Hamill played both Luke Skywalker in TESB and voiced Ferris Boyle in HOI.

Freeze suspends Batman from the ceiling in the same manner as Luke being suspended in the wampa cave.
