Shouldn't Superman been exposed by his clothes changing because of his wallet?

Well, you know that now he revealed his secret identity to the world in the comics, so it's a moot point..?

Clark Kent Reveals His Secret Identity – as a Coming Out Allegory? (Superman #18 Spoilers)
no worries, things will be back to normal next reboot in a few years.
 
It was shown in one issue that Superman stashes some cash in the hollow of his belt buckle.
Maybe when he has to change without a secure spot for his civvies he has the JLA teleport system beam them out?
 
Superman could go behind mirrors into that odd dimension as well. Why didn't he just go in there to change and leave his stuff. Early Superman didn't have all those powers of course. I guess the sun got yellower. But even in those early days, he could have always just left them on a ledge on some Metropolis skyscraper as he flew off to do stuff.
 
I'm sure Superman could pretty easily find a hidding place that normal people couldn't find.
 
Superman is a light weight.

The Marian Manhunter is a world class cultural appropriator.

He has 30 different super hero identities, globally, each regionally specific to let the unrepresented communities who now get the the big city super hero experience.

Oh, so that was just a Guy thing then? When it comes to characters I'm not familiar with, I never know if I should believe the stuff that Guy posts or not.
 
Assuming that Clark is always wearing his Superman uniform (under his street clothes), perhaps his wallet is concealed within the Supes getup?

Or perhaps he keeps his wallet in his desk at the Daily Planet, in a locked safe or something like that. I mean, it's not like he's going to need the wallet while he's Superman, amirite?

There's 3 super heroes in this list.

I was referencing an issue of Martian Manhunter from the early 2000s, which talked of a but load of other super heroes he posed as... But Google is failing me.

Clark Kents civics teacher?

John brainwashed Teen Clark Kent, to make sure he was a nerd boy scout?

Also not a joke, wanye brand soda dispensing machines locotaed all across Gotham are Bat Armouries with spare costumes and weapons.

The one time I saw bruce use this, he complained to him self to restock the soda machines more often because the batsuit was out of date, and snug.
 
Maybe he doesn't even need a wallet.

I mean, people need wallets for exactly two reasons: 1) driver's license, and 2) credit cards & cash.

Obviously Clark would never need to drive a car. And I doubt he'd need money, either.
Clark: Lois, can you get the coffees? I seem to have forgotten my wallet.
Lois: Again? Goodness Clark, you'd forget your head if it wasn't attached.
 
Every-time Superman saves the world, every bugger from that world owes him 20 bucks.

It's an unwritten rule.

So if Clark is 3 bucks short for paying for his coffee... A little super-speed later, and some nearby shmuck is just paying the man of tomorrow back, for diverting a meteor, 3 years ago.
