History
According to Clark, the first suit was made by Martha Kent.[1]
During the Anti-Monitor Crisis, Clark as "Superman" wore the suit in battle. After their victory, he would keep it at the S.T.A.R. Labs hall.[2]
Sometime after the crisis of 2019, some upgrades were made to the suit.[1]
Capabilities
Functions
- Cape: To help with Clark's flying, he relies on a cape to help him to turn for when he is flying; due to the fact that capes help with aerodynamics.
- Advanced durability: It is unknown what materials the suit is comprised of, however, the suit is just as durable as Clark; as bullets cannot penetrate it, even explosives from missiles and highly concentrated bursts of energy cannot damage it.
- Identity concealment: The Superman suit kept the wearer's identity concealed.
