SuperHeroes

API

Comprehensive superhero & villain data across all universes in one API

Overview

The SuperHeroes API provides RESTful endpoints to access detailed data on superheroes and villains from multiple universes (Marvel, DC, etc.). Key endpoints include search by name, fetch by unique ID, filter by alignment (hero/villain) or universe, and get power stats. Responses are JSON-formatted, containing attributes like bio, appearance, work, connections, and power ratings. Ideal for game developers (integrate character stats), comic fan sites (build profiles), content creators (generate trivia), and educational tools (explore lore).

Example Integration (JavaScript)

script.js JS


fetch('https://superheroapi.com')
  .then(res => res.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data))
