It's equally hard to imagine Superman getting an uke makeover as Batman. Any character not originating in a Japanese source work getting the uke treatment tends to baffle me a little, at least initially.
Ah, true. The uke dynamic comes from his secret identity as Clark Kent, in which he's shy and stammering. :) Similarly, Batman as an uke tends to focus on his Bruce Wayne (spoiled pampered playboy) side. It does tend to create a lot of flexibility in how you write them!
Citing me as Mithen should be fine! Thanks for asking! And keeping a database for where you get thoughts from is a cool idea. :)
