Comics How to improve Superman's suit to protect him from lethal threats?

Kryptonite naturally negates Superman's aura, so the suit wouldn't be protected by it.

Instead of acid, Superman could just break it down with heat vision.

IMO, introducing some fancy high-tech lead suit to be worn regularly is more trouble than it's worth. A better solution to the kryptonite problem is simply for the writers to stop relying on it to create a physical threat.

Superman doesnt get attacked enough with the green stuff to warrent a lead lined suit. Usually its all that energy and magic based attacks that screw him over. No supermans suit is fine a way it is. Though i might lose the cape since i mean it would suck to lose a fight because your cape got pulled.

^ haha like in The Incredibles? I don't think something like that would happen to Supes, it would just tear off since it isn't as invulnerable as the suit itself. And plus, Superman and Capes go hand in hand!

This might've been a valid question back in the underpants era, but now his suit is supposed to be some kind of armor so I'd expect it to be more resilient than even the old super-fabric. But to shield him from Kryptonite? that's the one thing everything Kryptonian should be vulnerable whether it's alive or not. I could imagine him incorporating some elements into the suit to give him a slight degree of resistance to magic

Superman fever!

Superman's face and hands are still exposed, wouldn't that nullify the protection the suit provides? Unless you're suggesting a suit that absolutely covers him from head to toe.
