Kevin Smith could have learned some valuable lessons from the Witcher series. In it, the most powerful non-sorcerer at the beginning of the series was arguably Geralt of Riveria and for the most part the story centered on him... And Ciri, his protege, apprentice, unofficial adopted daughter. Geralt was clearly impressive but the writers were able to grow Ciri into an impressive and arguably much more powerful warrior than Geralt without ever in the slightest diminish Geralt in the process. Geralt was Geralt from book one until the end of the series and Ciri was someone who was learning who she was through immense challenges, growing more and more powerful while still showing vulnerability. While still being able to show compassion and humility. It's probably totally unrealistic to expect Kevin Smith to develop a character in this manner though and he did something to his capabilities.
