DC fans have begun a new debate: should Superman be permitted to breathe in space or should he get a space suit? Some argue that while Superman's Kryptonian powers have allowed him to fly through space with ease, it might be time for him to face the reality that space is cold, lonely, and probably a touch drafty. Does Superman deserve a bit extra protection when he ventures into the vast unknown, or is it a superhero flex to never need a suit?

Superman in a space suit is an intriguing and humorous concept. Imagine him in a suit that somehow still displays the "S" on his breast, flying through space in a shiny helmet. On the one hand, he is the Superman we all know - unstoppable and bigger than life - because of his capacity to endure in space. A space suit, however, would provide some relatability by demonstrating that even Superman might require assistance in space.

And wouldn't it be funny to see him fumbling in midair with helmet fog or suit zippers? This argument allows us to examine his character in a fresh and enjoyable approach.

The discussion quickly became dominated by debates and memes, with some defending the idea as a hilarious twist and others arguing that Superman's powers transcend such practical constraints. The discussion spread faster than Superman himself, making Superman's space adventures the newest online craze.

Let me walk you through fans' reactions to this story!

Here's how fans have reacted regarding whether the DCU Superman be able to breathe in space or if should he need a space suit

Someone(@BCR) commented:

"He could be wearing a mask!"

A user(@BCR) wrote:

"This is a fun one because eventually he’d have to come back down for air!"

Another netizen(@BCR) commented:

"That’s always been my issue with him “breathing” in space. I guess you can make the case that he’s an alien and can write it so he’s able to also breathe helium/hydrogen?"

Someone (@BCR) commented:

"I kinda like the idea of giving Superman more suits. Batman has a bunch, have him make his best friend some as well! Haha"

A user (@Ms. Brown) expressed:

"He can hold his breath for sure, but can you actually breathe in space though?"

Another user (@DCUxo) commented:

"He doesn't need to breathe"

A netizen(@helix) quipped:

"Bro imagine trying to breathe in space even as super man it’s like trying to open and close a door at the same time"

Another one (@Mononoke) wrote:

"As long as he can have a good amount of sun energy, or well, any big yellow star "near" to recharge him, he doesn't need to breathe, eat or sleep at all. He is like a living solar panel. Lol"

A user(@tapiwab_) quipped:

"What will he be breathing in space"

Someone(@mistpisluc) expressed:

"Give him a mask instead a suit is too much"

A netizen (@Geeblockil) expressed:

"Breathe what? There is no air?"

Another one (@KON 2- AD- 11) wrote:

"It should literally depend on his age lol"

Another user(@SSJ5 Goku) quipped:

"Bro got invulnerability but yet still have to breathe in space"

So this is how fans have reacted. The majority of them are saying that Superman needs a mask instead of a space suit in the space.

Imagine Superman wearing his iconic red-and-blue suit but with a twist: a modern space helmet that is securely fastened and has an anti-fog visor (since rescuing the galaxy doesn't wait for helmet troubles). His "S" emblem shines triumphantly, just barely visible through oxygen tubes, while the cape clumsily flutters behind him, somewhat crumpled where it tucks into the back of the suit.

He modifies his mask in midair to avoid smudging the glass, which takes some of the flair out of his heroic stances. With a hint of astronaut style, it's Superman, ready to save the universe and potentially land a feature in a sci-fi fashion magazine! Isn't it funny? What do you say?
