This is a social colaboration network of 19428 characters of the Marvel Universe. The database comes from the Marvel Chronology Project.
Background:
Cesc Rosselló, Ricardo Alberich, and Joe Miro have been studying the Marvel Universe, that is, the artificial world that takes place in the universe of the Marvel comic books, as an example of a social collaboration network. They compared the characteristics of this universe to real-world collaboration networks, such as the Hollywood network, or the Erdős Collaboration network and other similar networks created by scientists who work together in producing research papers.
