Yes, J.J. Watt – who was turned into a comic book character, Megawatt, by one of his sponsors – recently donned a Batman costume to surprise kids at Texas Children’s Hospital this past Tuesday afternoon.

At 6-foot-5 and 290 pounds, it’s rare that J.J. Watt can enter a room unnoticed, but he used a disguise to give kids at Texas Children’s Hospital a Halloween treat this week. He met and posed with patients for photos, played games and helped the kids paint pumpkins during his visit.

The full feature on his visit will be shown this Sunday on NBC’s The Today Show at 7-8 a.m. (CT).

According to ESPN’s Tania Ganguli, this isn’t the first time Watt’s shown up at the hospital.

Fans are already having fun with a Batman Vs. J.J. Watt trailer going viral. “I just want to be that guy that parents point to and say, ‘He does it the right way'”.
