Ok so as the title says, I need help. I want to write a story like xmen, or any other generic comic. Any clichés or big parts that you could recommend would be great. And any thoughts too! Thanks!

Well, I'll give you some Marvel and some DC stereotypes, separately.
Every Marvel team needs at least one... Overly Aggressive character Genius Telepathic/Telekinetic/Magnetism Manipulator Outcast among outcasts
Every DC team needs at least one... Speedster Powerless hero Genius Telepath Telekinetic Ninja (or just someone who's generally sneaky... usually ends up being either the powerless hero or the telepath) Superstrength Magician Hero with technological roots, or tech-based powers Alien Someone who can fly (preferably more than one) Hero with Elemental-based powers Overly Aggressive character Unpredictable character Character who ends up betraying the team in some way
There's more, but this is all I can think of, at the moment. The speedster should be impatient and funny, using the DC stereotypes by the way. And the powerless hero ends up the big hero everyone applauds and is always a key player in any and every plan.

They tend to have tortured or mysterious (or both) pasts, too.

Almost all of them should have love interests, if you're trying to go similar to the comics characters. Usually normal people are the ones they're interested in, not other superheroes.
