What the Show is About
The show follows a group of characters called the League of Super Evil, or "L.O.S.E." They think they are supervillains. Their big plan is to take over their neighborhood called Metrotown. Eventually, they want to take over the whole world!
But their plans are usually quite silly. They might try to glue a penny to a chair. While everyone else lives in normal houses, L.O.S.E. has a "secret evil lair." They often run into other, more serious villains like Skullossus. They also try to avoid getting caught by Metrotown's heroes.

Character Designs
When the show was first announced in 2008, the characters looked a bit different. For example, Doktor Frogg first had grey hair and a grey lab coat. Later, his design changed to dark green hair and a blue coat.
Voltar's suit was first grey, but it was changed to red. Doomageddon, a character who looks like a Hellhound, was originally grey. He was later changed to yellow. Red Menace's suit was first red and white, then became plain green. These early designs were even used in one episode, "A LOSE/LOSE Situation." They appeared as the "Legion of Supreme Evil."
