Someday I would like to see a comic embrace the dark side a bit. Not to the point of MC being a cringy edge lord, but say yes to the dark offers. If a girl says she will do anything for you, take her up on it. If a gangster offers you riches in exchange for work, take it until he outgrows him.
Otherwise I know how this goes. Girl gets crush on him, MC never makes a move, he beats up gangster. Gets boring.
