So who is this Snowman of the DC Universe?

Why, it's Klaus Kristin, the hybrid son of a male yeti and a human woman.

The Snowman's first appearance was Batman # 337:



Later, he would fight Batman in Tibet in issue # 522 and presumably die.

However, he mysteriously shows up on the cover of Supergirl # 7, but I'm not sure he's even featured in the story.

And now he's back even more mysteriously as a member of Mr. Freeze's gang fighting the modern-day Justice League.
