I’m sure there are plenty of other enemies he cannot defeat, like Just Bought a Pistol woman, or In Melee Range with a Dagger Man.
So many heroes only attach blue-collar crime, and never tackle white-collar crime. It’s classicist.

Sooo… no different than the police, then.
Cue police with punisher badges
That’s a villain, not a hero.
The biggest advantage of bows in a gun setting would be stealth, can’t shoot what you don’t know is there. Makes the superhero stuff a bit difficult, though.
I’d still go with a repeating crossbow though, more power while being easier and faster to use.
“easier to use” shouldn’t really matter for Particularly-Good-At-Archery-Man. It’s not like a bow is a particularly slow weapon, either (medieval archers were probably doing about 10 shots per minute), and you don’t really need the additional power of crossbows - medieval war bows were able to kill armored knights, they were pretty much only limited by the archer’s strength. Whether you need high power pretty much depends on the setting - if you’re mostly fighting against human thugs who maybe wear a protective vest you don’t need extremely high draw strength. If the setting is more fantastical, why WOULDN’T “particularly good at archery” include absurdly strong muscles that make the additional power of crossbows unnecessary?
Medieval archers weren’t really aiming as much as just lobbing the arrows in a general direction.
