the cape probably has pockets so they can keep stuff like maps and chewing gum in there...

Well the devil, dracula, and the pope wore capes.  So, since all the cool people are doing it, they should follow.

that is a very good question I wonder why they have capes and a possibility is because you don't see the accident in the back of the costume and how do they get in and out of those<img src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/glurps.gif" border="0" />

why do they wear capes?If the superhero is superfast, the cape may provide protection against the dreaded "MONEY SHOT!"<img title="money shot" height="242" alt="money shot" src="http://www.superdickery.com/images/oneshot/batmansfacial1fk.jpg" width="206" border="0" />

That reminds me of Marvel's joke comic that came out every now and then.  It was always a little corny, but right up the alley of any hardcore comic fan.  I still have one from around the time I was a fan, and it was indeed funny.

I don't really know my Comic book lore but, was Batman the first supe to wear a cape?   I assume he did it because the cape kinda sorta looked like bat-wings, right?  But...why in the hell would Superman need one?And, more to the point, WHY IN THE HELL DID KRYPTO: THE SUPERDOG NEED ONE?  I vaguely remember that Superboy also had a pet Superhorse.  And I bet said horse wore a cape when he was out doing super-things.  That is just retarded. <img src="http://supermanica.info/wiki/images/thumb/6/67/220px-Krypto_in_flight.JPG" border="0" /> OMG!!!UPDATE: there was actually an entire legion of SuperPets.  Yes, they all wore capes.  Even BEPPO (the super monkey).  I mean really people....why would there be monkeys on Krypton?!    We may never know. <a href="http://users.telerama.com/~megabee/superpets.html">http://users.telerama.com/~megabee/superpets.html</a>  <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v355/tucker71/fezident.jpg" border="0" /> Killing threads since 2002.
