Well this is unusual (for me to criticize colors) but i actually think your color choices could be more cartoony/vibrant to match the stylized nature of the piece. The colors you picked would work better with a more realistic illustration, but a fix could be as simple as bumping the saturation and kind of dulling it down in areas where its too strong; also increasing the contrast.
Some examples:

One thing to think about when making a pose, is to actually do it yourself, like take the pose that the girl is taking rn. If you were being attacked by a horde of mummies, do you think your hands would be in those exact positions?

Always remember the fulcrum of a pose; especially ones intended to transfer energy. She looks like she's casually sliding the scimitar like a dust mop and her other hand is just waving hello to everyone to be cute. I like the guy with the dynamites pose, he's into it, the dude with the guns is in the right direction but would be even better if he had already stomped a mummy and in the other hand was blowing anothers head off. Naw'mean?
