“A Bat? That’s wild! Hey, at least robins are red, right?” He offered. “And it’s got a pretty nice ring to it. My last name’s Uchiwa. Like the hand fan. That’s where I got the idea for the name. My brother ordered boxes of purple fans to hand out at the competition. He said the marketing basically did itself.”

(much like the Batcave, with its Batmobile, batarangs and other bat-prefixed miscellany.)
