Bad Guy High

Evan and Dan are just two friends try to survive high school. Made harder when your teachers are supervillains and your homework is to take over the world.

This web comic started out as a zany Affectionate Parody of the superhero genre, but has become more serious in recent strips. It still manages to retain much of its earlier humor, though! Check it out at Drunk Duck.com

Tropes used in Bad Guy High include:

• Abusive Parents: Evan's father
• Academy of Adventure: The titular Bad Guy High.
• Achilles' Heel: Clownonite.
• Affectionate Parody
• An Ice Person - Mr. Frosty. Aka Frosty the snowman. Yes, that Frosty the snowman. In this comic, he's become a supervillain and plots to freeze the whole world into a perpetual winter so he'll never melt.
• Arm Cannon: Evan builds one into his robotic hand after his real hand gets burnt off by Evil Overlord Dan.
• Attention Whore: Thatman.
• Ax Crazy: Evan after he finds out Dan is Super Dan even to the point he outright kills Super Dan .
• Back From the Dead: Peter, Super Dan.
• Bad Future
• The Bad Guys Win: Super Dan, not being able to stand fact that he killed 20 millions of people, leaves Earth and tries to find SuperpowerGirl's dimension leaving her in his place. Laminate Society successfully kills most of heroes and only few remain to continue their resistance. Oh, and Evan graduates from Bad Guy High and finally can become true villain and join Laminate Society. Like in first strip, narration ends saying that all hope is lost. What did you expect from a comic called “Bad Guy High”?
• Badass Normal: Super Dan's brother Captain Perfect. Also the Captain DC in the future, after he loses his superpowers.
• Black Dude Dies First: Happeneds on this strip
• Book Ends: Clearly, all hope is lost.
• Bottomless Magazines - In one arc, Gen shoots 11 clownonite bullets at Superdan even though the clip shown in an earlier strip looks like it should only hold about 8, and definitely no more than 10.
• Brainwashed: Several villains use brainwashing to further their nefarious plans.
• Breaking the Fourth Wall: Not a comedic staple of the comic, but it is used from time to time.
• By the Power of Grayskull: Parodied with Captain DC.
• Captain Ersatz: Pretty much every character to some extent.

• Cerebus Retcon: That awesome holographic mother Evan created? Replacement for the one his dad killed in front of Evan for trying to defend herself from one of his nightly wife beatings.
• Cerebus Syndrome: The comic starts out with a dolphin powered doomsday device, and ends up with the protagonist needing to use said doomsday device against his best friend, who took over the world, killed most of his other friends, and enslaved his girlfriend. Pretty much everything funny or cool introduced in the first half of the comic turns into a drama filled Chekhov's Gun at some point in the second half.
• Charles Atlas Superpower: Captain Perfect. Also the Captain DC in the future, after he loses his superpowers.
• Chess with Death - Dan tells Evan he escaped Hell by challenging Death (who's apparently a very attractive Goth girl) to a game of Twister. He's lying.

• Hot for Student: Pandora.
• Humongous Mecha: Used primarily by Doomface and Evan.
• I Love Nuclear Power: Dan gets his superpowers by being bitten by a radioactive Superman, his transformations in earlier strips are fueled by residual gamma radiation in his system, and one throwaway gag strip mentions a toxic waste-carrying truck crashing as a potential opportunity to develop superpowers.
• Knight Templar: Super Dan's future self.
• Lampshade Hanging: Here is one example.
• Magic Pants
• Most Common Superpower: Both Super Power Girl and Pandora. Pretty much inevitable in a parody of superhero comics.

"You think that's bad? You should see his fleet of alien zombie pirates!"

• Parental Abandonment - Evan's dad is a very prominent supervillain who is disappointed in his son's lack of superpowers and spends all of his time in his asteroid lair plotting world domination.
