This example fetches a random Marvel character from the Marvel Comics API and displays that character’s thumbnail in a pop-up window. It first selects a random offset between 1 and 1,485, then queries the API’s character endpoint with a limit of one. After retrieving the initial result, the code makes a second request to the character’s resource URI to get the full name and image path. Using jQuery’s `$.get` promises, it constructs the image URL at the `standard_fantastic` size and opens it via `window.open`. The data source is the live Marvel API.

Find MARVEL characters without images

This example queries the Marvel Comics API to identify characters that lack a usable thumbnail image. It sends one request per character, iterating through all 1,485 entries, and checks each response’s `thumbnail.path` for the substring `image_not_available`. Characters matching that condition are collected into an array and logged to the console after all requests finish, using jQuery’s `$.get` and `Promise.all` to manage the asynchronous calls. The final output shows the total count and IDs of those characters without images.

Marvel Characters | Force layout with images

A force-directed graph renders Marvel characters as profile images that repel and link together based on a hierarchical dataset. The visualization uses D3’s force layout to position nodes, with images serving as both nodes and interactive elements. Clicking a character updates the header to show their secret identity and a link to their Marvel webpage; hovering scales the image up to reveal the hero’s name. Links between characters are drawn as curved paths, and the root node is fixed at the top center. The animation runs in an SVG container with a clean, comic-book-inspired aesthetic.

Marvel Characters | Force layout with images

This interactive force-directed graph visualizes Marvel characters, grouped by Heroes, Villains, and Teams, with each node displaying a character image. The layout uses the `d3.layout.force()` API for physics-based positioning and SVG rendering. Clicking a character reveals their real name and a link to their Marvel webpage, while hovering temporarily enlarges the image. The visualization also includes draggable nodes and animated transitions between states, powered by D3.js v3.

Marvel Characters | Force layout with images

The visualization shows Marvel characters in a force-directed graph, where each hero is represented by an image node. Users can click a character to display their secret identity and a link to their Marvel web page, while hovering enlarges the image and reveals the character’s name. Built with D3 v3, the layout uses force simulation to position nodes, with images as nodes and curved links between them. The chart is interactive, allowing users to explore character connections through a collapsible tree structure.

Marvel Characters | Force layout with images

This example visualizes Marvel characters as a force-directed graph, where nodes are character portraits and links show relationships between heroes, villains, and teams. Users can click any node to reveal the character’s identity and a link to their Marvel webpage. It uses d3.layout.force() for physics simulation, d3.layout.tree().links() for hierarchical edge construction, and SVG rendering with animated transitions on mouse events. The data is loaded from a local JSON file containing character metadata and image URLs.

Ids of Marvel characters without Image

This example visualizes the IDs of 512 Marvel characters who lack images in the Marvel Comics API, showing their distribution across the total 1,485-character dataset. It plots the IDs as a chronological strip, highlighting the 34.5% missing-image rate. The visualization uses D3.js, fetching data from the Marvel API endpoint and rendering the ID list as a structured array for display.

MARVEL

This example displays the first ten rows of a Marvel Cinematic Universe dataset, which includes film details like title, phase, release date, and box office figures. The rendered output is a text-based preview of the CSV data, shown as JSON objects. The code uses D3 v5’s `csv` method to load the data from a remote gist, converts it to a readable format with `JSON.stringify`, and appends it to the page using selections. A `pre` element displays the header and rows, with a `csvFormat` function used to calculate the data size.

Marvel Characters | Force layout with images

This interactive force-directed graph maps Marvel characters as circular node images connected by curved links. Built with D3 v3’s force layout, it renders an SVG network where each character is represented by a portrait. Hovering enlarges the image and reveals the hero’s name; clicking updates the header with the character’s secret identity and a link to their Marvel webpage. Node size encodes a numeric size value, while links show hierarchical relationships in a tree-like arrangement. The layout uses gravity, charge, and link distance parameters to organize the characters, with smooth transitions on hover.
