[DC] If Superman is invited to a funeral, does he show up there in full costume or with appropriate clothing?

If the latter, how do they NOT recognize him as Clark Kent?

For superheroes in the DC universe, its not a costume, its a uniform.

Superheroes in that world are a long-standing tradition, going back to before WWII.  Everyone recognizes their contributions and honors their service.  Their 'costumes' are as much part of their tradition as a police officer's or soldier's uniform is to theirs.

It may therefore be insulting for Superman *not* to show up in uniform.  Like, the deceased person was not worth him putting it on?  Superman at their funeral would be an honor.  Some shmoe in yet another dark suit is nothing special.

But it does make you wonder if maybe superheroes should have both 'normal' uniforms for everyday use and 'dress' uniforms for special occasions, like the military and police...
