''[https://web.archive.org/web/20191021162347/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/ Evil Plan]'' is a webcomic on [[Smack Jeeves]], about aspiring supervillain [[Villain Protagonist|Tal A. Kinesis]], and his engineer second-in-command, Alice Evanson. Originally, it was mostly gag-a-day shots parodying supervillain cliches, but by now it's become a character-driven story, focused on the main characters' romance and Kinesis' [[Take Over the World|bid for power]].

----
=== ''Evil Plan'' provides examples of: ===
* [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]]: That [http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/868396/interlude-8-weird-even-for-flirting/ one night] wasn't all bad.
* [[Bookcase Passage]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20150503023347/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/194760/prologue-page-15-just-what-you-wanted/ In the form of a secret elevator.]
* [[Break the Cutie]]: Chapter 7 was pretty rough on the bright young hero, Kevin and this is ''before'' Kinesis has had a chance to make things personal.
* [[Calling Your Attacks]]: Amazingman improvises the Amazing Punch during his first battle. The minions only realized he was a super hero after he invoked this trope.
* [[Character Development]]: Kevin gets plenty in Chapter 7.
* [[Clark Kenting]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20150302133743/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/1484047/prologue-page-20-villains-dont-need-masks/ "A change of clothing and hair, and anyone can be a new person"]
* [[Crossover]]: As of Chapter 7 we can now confirm Evil Plan takes place in the same continuity as Sire, though several months before the Sire story begins.
* [[Death Trap]]: Subverted, usually. Lemon and Lime employ potentially a variety of lethal traps at their office entrance, solely for the sake of snapping humiliating pictures of the trespassers/invited guests.
* [[Do Not Adjust Your Set]]: Kinesis hacks in to all television network and web browsers to deliver his ultimatum to Amazingman.
* [[Genius Bonus]]: The binary in [https://web.archive.org/web/20120910151923/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/1424626/chapter-8-page-1-binary/ this strip] is valid and can be translated to cute little folder names.
* [[Hates Being Touched]]: Kinesis [https://web.archive.org/web/20130615113045/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/241340/we-should-all-be-so-lucky/ hates] [https://web.archive.org/web/20150103051940/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/432775/really-quite-friendly/ human] [https://web.archive.org/web/20111230183035/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/465384/hero/ contact.] Even the [https://web.archive.org/web/20131024013156/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/494205/welcome-to-stanleys-home/ nice] [https://web.archive.org/web/20130615112805/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/869592/interlude-7-no-touchy/ kind.]
* [[Mad Scientist Laboratory]]: Naturally.
* [[Lethal Chef]]: That vat of fruitcake acid had to come from someone. And that some place is Kinesis' loving, unknowing younger sister.
Line 24:
* [[Personality Chip]]: Computer has a will of its own.
* [[Professor Guinea Pig]]: Kinesis is the first test subject for the Telekinetic Amplification Chip.
* [[She Is Not My Girlfriend]]: When Lemon and Lime first meet Alice, they immediately assume that she's Kinesis' girlfriend. Alice's words say no, but her expression says [https://web.archive.org/web/20131027044046/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/367192/dont-assume-that/ differently].
* [[Second Law, My Ass]]: Computer seems to [https://web.archive.org/web/20150915071511/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/391044/definitive-evidence/ never] miss an [https://web.archive.org/web/20150915071615/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/513906/wrapping-the-gift/ opportunity ] to [https://web.archive.org/web/20150915071823/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/929713/chapter-5-page-10-two-point-oh/ stick it ] to its [https://web.archive.org/web/20150915071222/http://evilplan.thewebcomic.com/comics/964746/chapter-5-page-19-what-he-always-wanted/ creator].
* [[Take Over the World]]: Of course.
* [[Unfazed Everyman]]: Alice. It takes her some time to get used to the whole supervillain thing.
Line 32:
** Lemon and Lime also qualify. Those two lovable lesbians do black market business and steal patents from their rightful owners.
* [[Villain Song]]: By Andrew of [[Songs to Wear Pants To]], no less. Can be downloaded [http://www.suturesound.com/stwpt/tracks/0540_evil_plan_theme.mp3 here.]
* [[Webcomics Multiverses]]: ''[httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20191127233758/http://mortifer.smackjeeves.com/ Mortifer]'' and ''Evil Plan'' have had a couple of crossovers, as have the artists' other works, ''[httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20190828140825/http://fringehappy.smackjeeves.com/ Fringe Happy]'' and ''[httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20131105201719/http://sire.smackjeeves.com/ Sire]''.
** Also, since {{spoiler|Piper appears in both Mortifer and Fringe Happy}}, we can assume that those two take place in the same universe, as well.
** In chapter seven, we learn that {{spoiler|Paul Enfield was Kevin's stepbrother, making Evil Plan and Sire linked directly.}}
