AceShowbiz - While there was no major presence or special panel for both "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and "Suicide Squad" at New York Comic Con, star Jared Leto did participate in the event. Leto's fellow actor, Mark Ruffalo, also attended the event and they both came in disguise, wearing incognito masks to conceal their true identities.
Donning their masks, Ruffalo and Leto walked around the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan, where the event was held, took pictures with other cosplayers and uploaded some photos of their activities on social media. Leto wore a Baboon mask during the event to make fans do not realize that it was him. He uploaded a photo on Twitter which captures himself alongside one fan who was cosplaying as Leto's version of the Joker. "He had no idea. :) #NYCC2015," Leto captioned the photo.
