What's the deal with his cape?After almost evry fight his cape is in shreds but not the rest of his costume. I thought his costume was supposed to be as invulnerable as he was

Good question bro. Don't know.

he's not invulnerable when he's fighting aliens and people from other dimensions which is when him and his costume get f*cked up alot

If his whole costume got as torn up as his cape does he'd be naked after every major fight.

Correct me if I'm wrong. I read somewhere that there's some sort of "invisible force field" emitted by his body that only extends out quite thin. This is enough to protect his costume but not his free flowing cape. And if this is b.s. I think its quite rosy b.s.

i think its true....supes has a weirdo forcefiled thing happnin...but it like an invisible layer of skin.....so it wouldnt prtect his cape...

Actually, I don't think there's a "force field". His costume is made from the blankets he was wrapped in as a baby. Alien-based thread under the yellow sun, is inpenetrable, just like Superman's skin. How the cape rips? I dunno.

The force feild comes from his cells. Cloth doesn't have it.

This is correct
