Batman, Spiderman, Superman, The Fantastic 4, Mighty Mouse, and any others you can possibly think of. 9 times out of 10, they all wear tights (and some wear capes too).
WHAT IS IT ABOUT TIGHTS!?
Do they wear them to avoid their clothing getting snagged on things? Do they wear them to look good? What is it about superheros and tights? What's the real reason they wear them? Be as creative/descriptive as possible.

The reason for tights is that it allows for the greatest range of movement while providing the entire body with protection... Most of the time in comic books, the thights that superheroes wear are not actually made of something simple like spandex. They are either woven from bullet-resistant fabric or some sort of 'unstable' element that allows the fabric to either mimic or resist the effects of the hero's power.
Also, being that the material is skin tight, it is easily conceled under everyday street clothes, to allow for easy and quick costume changes. An example of how it could be difficult if the suit was armor or something like that... Iron Man/Tony Stark used to have his armor as a pod that was stored in his car trunk and would fly to him. Well, there were a few times that Tony had to escape or try to stay alive long enough for the armor to get to him. Having your costume on you at all times allows for easy access during a crisis. We all are familiar with Superman's quick changes in phone booths during an emergency.
ALSO, when comic book characters were created, their wardrobe was modeled on circus preformers and strong-men; bright and colorful, showing off the enhanced body shape, etc... This made them stand out from the other figures on the printed page of comics.
Hope that helped!!!

The real reason is it's the easiest to draw. Artist have to make their deadline. A hero in tights is the nude body then they change the color and you have a outfit. Also all artist have a different style, but every can recognize Batman, Spiderman, etc. by their costume. Also cartoons & comics can reuse pictures if the charters are wearing the samething all of the time.

Wearing tights makes them feel lighter so it's easier for them to fly. It's used as a second skin, but they still have clothes on.
If you look at the Olympics or different types of Sports, you'll notice that some of the athletes are wearing tights as well, this makes them a little faster when they run, jump, swim, etc.

They wear tights so comic book artists can draw their muscles and show how buff they are.
The tights are crazy color schemes so you can tell one superhero from another easily in a comic book.
At least, that's how it was in the old days, when comic books were cheap and for kids. These days, Wolverine is more likely to just wear jeans, a T-shirt, and a leather jacket. Or that stupid black puffy suit in the movies...

easier to draw
easier to show off muscle, so you basically draw them say naked, add tights to its not graphic and you have superhero with bulging muscles.
easier to move in, doesn't get caught.
some tights have special abilities too. prolly the best know example is the incredibles with the scene with edna and the mom.

They wear them because they can.
Who'd want to make fun of someone who shots lazer from his eyes? You can test your superpower by wearing tights - if you can walk 10 blocks without anybody saying anything, you're probably special.

Ario dynamics! regular jeans and clothes would create Resistance and slow them down. Also they are very quiet and no one can heard them coming, and if you were running super fast your pants might fall down and trip you, and that would suck.... And capes well they help you fly! (lol)
