* '''Deconstructed''': Amazing Girl's refusal to help solve everyday problems is merely indicative that she doesn't really care, and is no real hero; she focuses on the 'beat-something-up' problems because she's ultimately too cowardly and selfish to truly share her gifts where they'll do most good.
** Alternatively, Amazing Girl decided, after one too many comments that she is useless, to indeed help with everyday problems, and things escalated until she was taking over the world.
** Amazing Girl is tormented by guilt by her refusal or inability to use her gifts in such a fashion, and begins to question whether she is really any use at all.
** She acquires a nemesis who was a law-abiding citizen until he went mad as a result of barely surviving a plague she could easily have prevented if she hadn't been so focussed on fighting crime. He's still sane enough to rub her nose in his origin story, and the number of infected who ''didn't'' survive.
* '''Reconstructed''': One of Amazing Girl's friends reminds her that she still makes a difference; whilst there are millions of doctors researching cures into cancer, only she is capable of dealing with the superpowered madmen, {{Evil Overlord}}s and alien conquerors who threaten her world on a regular basis, and that 'no one can solve ''all'' the world's problems single-handedly'.
* '''Averted''': Amazing Girl is merely a BadassNormal or otherwise limited superhero; while she does have abilities that place her above most other people, she's by no means in a position where she's able to use her gifts to effect massive societal change on the scale this trope demands.
