* Seems to happen with [[Spider-Man (Comic Book)|Spider-Man]] quite frequently. Makes sense, considering he is often [[The Woobie]], [[The Chew Toy]] or both.
** In the comics, Spider-Man once had to get rid of his entire costume (it was the symbiote at the time). He had to borrow a [[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]] costume, but because it didn't have a mask, he had to wear a paper bag over his head (and a [["Kick Me" Prank|kick-me sign on his back]], courtesy of Johnny Storm). No, seriously. He was called [https://web.archive.org/web/20130605103949/http://www.spiderfan.org/characters/himself/costume/not_really/index.html "The Amazing Bag-Man" and "The Bombastic Bag-Man"].
** In an early story arc, Spidey's costume gets trashed (again), but he doesn't have a spare and is forced to buy a Spider-man costume from a costume shop. A dunk in the river causes the cheap costume to shrink, forcing him to web it in place, which leads to further problems...
** During a Team-Up with Wolverine Spidey once found himself abroad and in need of a costume. Luckly for him he was able to purchase a reasonable imitation of a Spiderman costume in a costumeshop in Berlin. Unfortunately it had "Die Spinne" written on the back, the name that the character was known by and that Spiderman comics were sold under in Germany back then.
