Multilevel two-mode affiliation, signed one-mode networks of Marvel comic book characters (Yuksel 2017)

Source: R/data_ison.R

This package includes two datasets related to the Marvel comic book universe. The first, ison_marvel_teams, is a two-mode affiliation network of 53 Marvel comic book characters and their affiliations to 141 different teams. This network includes only information about nodes' names and nodeset, but additional nodal data can be taken from the other Marvel dataset here.

The second network, ison_marvel_relationships, is a one-mode signed network of friendships and enmities between the 53 Marvel comic book characters. Friendships are indicated by a positive sign in the tie sign attribute, whereas enmities are indicated by a negative sign in this edge attribute.
