FANDOM NAME: Tom Corbett Space Cadet - Carey Rockwell
WHAT MAKES IT GREAT: A book series tying into a 50s sci fi TV show, very much in the boys' own adventure style. Optimistic sci fi, fully ridiculous (there are dinosaurs on Venus!), but really delightful, and our three main characters make for a very good OT3 if that's up your alley. Tom, Roger, and Astro have various adventures that always seem to end in at least one of them getting injured and being worried about and taken care of by the other two, so it is also a great fandom for some hurt/comfort. Sample adventures include an exhibition of new technology leading to a hunt for space pirates, a dinosaur hunt leading to finding criminals in the Venusian forests, and our heroes proctoring a race in space.
WHERE CAN I FIND IT?(optional): It's on Project Gutenberg! I actually fandom promoed this one last year too, and the comment with all the links to the books in series order (plus more details about this canon) is right here.

FANDOM NAME: Barbie: Star Light Adventure (2016)
WHAT MAKES IT GREAT: This is a brightly colored sci fi adventure with universe-saving stakes, no real villain, some great team training and bonding (including a very good potential f/f relationship between Barbie and one of her friends, check out this gifset to get some idea), plot significant music, and actually some really cool scenery! It's also a Barbie movie, so it's a little silly and contains some blatant buy-this-toy animal companions, but if you want a comfort movie and you like sci fi, this might be the movie for you!
WHERE CAN I FIND IT?(optional): It's on Netflix in the US, and for at least a while this year, all the Barbie movies were free on YouTube, so it's worth checking if it still is.
