CLEVELAND — **Superman, Batman and Captain America converged on University Hospitals Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital on Tuesday.

That's the best way to describe an afternoon in which the Browns' rookie class came here to visit patients for a Halloween party in Angie's Garden, a colorful and peaceful rooftop garden at the facility.

Cloaked in a wide array of costumes, Corey Coleman (Superman), Emmanuel Ogbah (Mr. Incredible), Spencer Drango (Captain America), Carl Nassib (bacon and eggs)  and Joe Schobert (Batman) headlined a group of almost 20 rookies who made their way to the hospital for crafts and photos.

The players also spent time moving about the hospital for special room visits, handing out gifts and signing autographs in an effort to help put smiles on the faces of patients and their families.

There wasn't a costume contest, but the Browns wore their very best. Among the most well-received outfits (aside from the superheroes) were George Atkinson III and Derrick Kindred (Spider Man) Anthony Fabiano (penguin), Danny Vitale (hot dog), Briean Boddy Calhoun (Clark Kent), Tyrone Holmes (The Flash) and Scooby Wright III (Hulk).
