Hmm... a good point. The vigilante part was more along the lines of 'but what if he needs to fight??' but, like, the whole point of a character like that is that he... doesn't, I guess. He's also supposed to be an optimist rather than moody - not acting so much out of resentment (though there's a little bit of it there) or 'angst' (he's probably not a teenager any more) but rather out a kind of...

"I don't get super powers but that doesn't mean I can't still do some good in this world."

...Although, come to think of it, that's actually probably how a teenager given PHENOMENAL COSMIC POWER and told to be a selfless hero would react, so that's actually kind of funny.

Hmm...

So perhaps by lampshading the edginess and having her not necessarily be taken as a serious threat? Perhaps because her powers are fueled by negative emotions she's not actually that strong in comparison to the others and has to try and learn the virtues of 'not being shortsighted' and 'focusing every waking moment on being a force for change is just going to burn you out and make you more miserable'...
