"Met Superman this morning. Can the day get any better?"
Superman has arrived!
Henry hit up the Ace Comic Con exhibit floor bright and early, to meet with artists like @ComicDunes setting up for the weekend. In fact, Cory's autographed drawing already went to a lucky Treasure Hunt winner (keep checking Henry's IG story!).

Have fun you guys!
UPDATE: Boy, did everyone have a big smile after meeting Supes... except this guy. Best pic of the day!
Two lucky winners have now secured their spots at his private Superman Q&A on Sunday, after following the clues posted on his Instagram story. The three day convention began today at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum and there is plenty for fans to check out.
In addition to the photo and autograph sessions with Henry and his costars, Ace Comic Con is offering a full slate of really cool panels leading up to Sunday's Justice League Q&A.
