Sense of progression. You story is progressing well, the plot and character developing are more than fine. But the issue lie in the sense of progresskon of your OC power. He feels stagnant. You can fix this in different ways. - One can be giving him a power up - You can make the fights more brutal. Mention how he brakes bones, rip skin, tore flesh. (Like in Mortal combat) - Give him a weapon.
Think theyre only there because they are further along in the story even though youve had him do a few things like youve said the past few chapters hes still basically bottom of the barrel with nothing to really show for it when you compare him to other makes it all seem kinda pointless at the moment.
I think you should not worry about the rankings, your story is really great. Especially this is a new book wait for it to pick up some traction, It will easily penetrate the Top 20 although you have harsh competition there. Although you have a great writing talent and ability you are still not up to par with CORNBRINGER and MisterImmortal's caliber, But you are close
Story is going good. Ur a great writer and when ur story gains more traction it will shoot through the rankings. U can add more tags and change the cover or title to make it stand out more if u want. U can also change ur chapter length in exchange for longer update times. Don’t focus on peters life or babysitting him or other hero’s life, focus on ur character more and his romance with Diana. You could easily flesh that out with Diana being connected to the Amazons and stuff. Flesh out ur combat more btw. I’d rather see one big build up and a epic fight than just multiple fights with gangsters and people in invisibility cloaks. That’s all I can think of for now
great novel, has superb potential, but u don't pay to the character powers looks he's biology-,electronic/mechanical guy, I understand he's worried he just got out of the well to a whole f.. world of superpowered villains / evils / god's he can feel weak but after initial fear humans try to overcome those weaknesses, plot like this take time and some people don't enjoy take time like with wine! to get to know struggles and prefer Pill/potion/miracle solving problems, your story is different it shows a regular human struggle! I know he's talents in science and KunFu or martial Arts are there! but! he's human and even 100% human power is nothing comapre to shimpanzi not to mention Gorilla that why we got science to help us out I would love to see that implemented into the story%, but I've mention before even that has its limits and to break those limits imagination and struggle and stubborn mind is needed! Be proud ! that's the charm of your story!
I think the book is awesome but too few chapters. Also, this book will not be truly respected because you skip a lot of the story. Show us his daily romance with Diana, you just skipped over her after finding out about her best friend. Expand the universe to keep us invested. Show us a day in Diana's shoes. Show us Tony Stark finding out about Serenity or something. Don't narrow our view to one character. Fill the time skips with something else. His growth can excel in the time skips but use it to show different characters.
