Why do heroes wear costumes to funerals?

So you can tell who's who.

>>87858446
It's probably so they don't expose their identities.

>>87858484
This is the sad truth.

It's pretty cool of them to come to a funeral for that guy's arm

>>87858446
essentially these two >>87858484 >>87858508.
The former is the meta reason. The latter is the in-universe reason/excuse.

>why is bruce wayne at this guy's funeral?

Like 20 banks are being robbed right now

>>87858539

That's not Bruce.

That's a tiny casket. Sad.

>>87858446
I can't remember but is Oliver MIA or KIA during this? I was pretty sure he was around, but if he was still being held on Themsycara, or still dead, that'd explain his absence. But since Hal is Hal and not Spectre or Parallax, I'm thinking he's around and just being a douche since Connor, Mia, and Dinah are there.

member when all the Xmen wore their fetish gear outfits to Illyana's funeral and then Magneto crashed it? Fucking both Xmen and Magneto were disrespectful

>>87858539
Who?

>>87858446
Wait there are 4 different flashes in that picture? What the fuck

Obviously the identity thing.

The real question is why don't they wear a more somber version of their costume?

You usually have a few days before a funeral. Why wouldn't they go get one made for them or already have something like that ready for social events?

Costumes are for when it's a professional funeral. Civvies are for when it's a personal close matter.

Why not wear a suit or dress but keep the mask on. Going to a funeral with your tits and ass hanging out or your panties on the outside of your pants is just wrong

Still don't care about Roy. Probably never will.

Time to go to Jean's funeral. Tee hee

Same reason soldier's get married in their uniform, comfortable and convenient, and socially acceptable in place of a suit/tux

It's one of those little perks of the job.

Oh so it's good enough to risk your life saving the city/country/world/galaxy, but not good enough to go to a colleague's funeral?

>>87858446
That coffin seems awfully tiny.

>>87858808
Take a wild guess why

>>87858714
Are you insulting her proud African heritage? Fuckin racist

> two billionaires, a reporter, a pilot, a forensic scientist, a homeless child and a detective from completely different cities all show up to a random guys funeral

>>87858828
to save money?

>>87858539
ブルスワインガだれだよ

why does the casket have a window?

>>87858860

>A bunch of heroes show up for this normal guy's funeral
>A bunch of people from different parts of society all show up for this normal guys funeral

which one seems more suspicious

>>87858674
But the OP's pic is a civilian funeral, Roy Harper's daughter.

I was speaking more in general, I don't know the contact of this panel. I was mostly referring to Superhero funerals or funerals of public identity heroes

>>87858903
It's an escape hatch

why would the JSA know Roy well enough to justify this?

Did the artist feel bad that Roy has no friends? :(

Other than maintaining their secret identities, it could also be like when soldiers wear their uniforms to the funerals of their fellow soldiers.

Because they press f to pay respect.

Also they're extremely samefaced, so you could not tell them appart without the costumes.
