Resident evil AU where the STARS team are Baywatch lifeguards instead of cops.

Ah, my friend. This question pre-supposes that there are any objectively good X-Men arcs to read! 😂
There are arcs that I could recommend to you, but it wouldn’t be because they’re good. Frankly, all of the “best” X-Men arcs have some kind of large negative or squicky element to them that makes me hesitate to recommend them.
Just for starters, absolutely everything by the single best X-Men author (Chris Claremont) is half disguised fetish material that comes off very badly in the current fandom environment.
If you want to *read* X-Men comics– and don’t get me wrong, I think you should read X-Men comics!– the best idea is to pick a particular character or set of characters that you’re interested in and follow their most significant arcs in the comics.
In fact, if you want to come back to me with this question about a particular character or characters, I will absolutely be able to recommend you arcs to read! (Please do this XD)
If you want the best “X-men as a team”/“X-Men as a whole” experience, on the other hand, I genuinely think the cartoons (the original 90s X-Men first season, X-Men Evolution, and Wolverine and the X-Men) do a much better job of conveying that experience.
Tell me more about the X-Men fetish stuff. Is it Nightcrawler’s 2 Dicks? Or Shadowcat backing up through Collosus? The Savage Land? Emma planting a false memory in Scott’s mind to make him think that he had a threesome with Emma and Jean, which will eventually ruin his marriage?
- The Hellfire club in (actual) fetish gear
- race swapping (comes up several times)
- raceplay/slavery kink (depicted with Storm and the Hellfire Club)
- 14 year old Kitty tries to get adult Colossus to have sex with her when she thinks they’re about to die
- weight gain/weight loss fetishism
- lots of general transformation fetishism
- characters depicted in fetish bondage poses
- femdom galore
- Charles Xavier badtouching and mindcontrolling an underage student (while he’s ‘evil’.)
that’s just off the top of my head without taking much time to think of it.
Emma planting a false memory in Scott’s mind to make him think that he had a threesome with Emma and Jean, which will eventually ruin his marriage?
I genuinely can’t remember if this is a canon thing that happens or not, but I’m pretty sure it is.
“their relationship is strictly platonic” “they’re so in love” well, more importantly, they are fucking weird and abnormal about each other in an undeniable way
Sorry we put your autistic boyfriend in the fandom and they completely infantilised him. Sorry yeah he’s an innocent baby who’s never even heard of a sex and doesn’t know a single swearword now. Yeah they’re treating him like the team kid and calling his friends his parents I’m so sorry about this. Yeah I know he’s committed felonies in canon but it doesn’t matter it’s too late now I’m sorry
