Here are some frostbite pictures:
Early frostbite shows as bright royal purple. As it warms the purple will subside and the ends will turn translucent with black scabs at the tips. The scabs will eventually fall off leaving the comb a bit shorter than it was.
Roosters seem to be more suseptible. Their combs are usually bigger and they tend to stay out longer because they're looking after the hens.
