History FanFic / XMenNewClass

* BroadStrokes: With very little information on exactly what changed in the new timeline created by ''Days of Future Past'', ''New Class'' approaches it from the perspective that many events of the original timeline ''do'' still play out in some form. For example, Wolverine is shown to have [[Film/XMenOriginsWolverine received his adamantium skeleton (presumably from Stryker)]], Rogue still received her SkunkStripe from Magneto's machine and gets a bit of teasing from Jubilee over [[Film/XMen1 blowing up the Statue of Liberty's torch]], and Jubilee herself recalls [[Film/X2XMenUnited being kidnapped by Stryker]], which she cites as a reason for returning to California after graduating, rather than remaining at the school.

* HighConcept: The series is fundamentally an exercise in what a TV spinoff of the ''X-Men'' films could be like.

* LocalHangout: Salem Center in general and the Grind Stone Café in particular is this for the students.

* WeHaveBecomeComplacent: As pointed out by Psylocke, the X-Men grew complacent in the decade of peace since the Incident at Alkaly Lake, leaving themselves completely unprepared for Stryker's attack by his Purifiers.

* AscendedExtra: In the films, Jubilee is at best walking set dressing, and the biggest part she had in any of the films was as one of the students kidnapped by Stryker in ''X2''. She plays a much bigger role in the series and the school's student counselor/advisor.

* SexySecretary: Stryker's secretary [[spoiler:Betsy Braddock]], who is much more than it seems the eye.

* [[ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodeNames Comic Book TV Shows Don't Use Code Names]]: Zigzagged. None of the kids use their codenames, although Jay Guthrie does note that his band was called Icarus because of his wings, and tells Stryker some of their fans took to using it for him specifically. However Cyclops's name ''is'' used, and most of the kids outright refer to Logan as "[[ShroudedInMyth The Wolverine]]."

''X-Men: New Class'' contains examples of:

* WholeEpisodeFlashback: Much of "Haywire" is told in the form of a flashback, showing how Nori's power manifested and she eventually came to the school.

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9421070/1/X-Men-New-Class X-Men: New Class]]'' is a fanfic set in the [[Film/XMenFilmSeries Earth-10005]] universe, and is written in the form of a weekly television series. Many of the elements of the series are written as a film-verse adaption of Christopher Yost's and Craig Kyle's run on ''[[Comicbook/NewMutants New X-Men]]'', from which many of the characters and plots are drawn. Series author Ambaryerno describes it as his interpretation of how a television series could be used to expand the film's universe, with inspiration for the concept coming from Marvel's ''Series/AgentsOfShield''. The series falls somewhere in the new timeline created by ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', with many of the changes created by this film evident (Cyclops and Jean being alive, for example), and assumes that events of the original film trilogy ''do'' happen again in BroadStrokes (for example, Magneto's plot in ''Film/XMen'' and Stryker's attack on the school in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'' are both mentioned by characters as part of their backstory).

** Rogue and Jubilee mention Magneto using the former to power his machine during at Liberty Island as depicted in ''Film/XMen'', while Wolverine and Cyclops discuss the same incident when Logan drops Laura off at the school. Jubilee is also shown to still be affected by her time as Stryker's captive during the events of ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.

* HotPursuit: One occurs in "Downtime." After a fight between Julian, Santo, and Victor against some football fans from a neighboring school nearly escalates into a full-blown riot, they're rescued by Laura, Sooraya, Mark and Cessily, who have stolen a pickup, and wind up in a high speed chase to escape the police responding to the disturbance. It ends when Laura has Julian use his powers to levitate them (truck and all) across the Titicus Reservoir, as it would take too long for their pursuers to track them.
