Unless it's in the realm of online fan-comics, most real mainstream comics that feature characters that have growth powers don't end up naked when they metamorphasize. Some of them have the handy "unstable molicule" outfits to preserve their modesty, but they are always featured wearing these clothes and when they're not they change and somehow - to use the originators for example - the Hulk and She-Hulk always manage to keep bits of clothes on covering up their naughty bits. You never see characters like Giant Man or Elasti-Girl growing too big for their regular clothes either. Or the Atom shrinking too small for his clothes.
