Evilman Rise!

— Mike Evillman


Mike Evilman is a recurring character on The Thundermans. He was Hank Thunderman's archenemy and the only villain that he couldn't beat. He's portrayed by Eric Allen Kramer who played Bob Duncan in Good Luck Charlie.

Personality[]

After retiring from his life as a villain, Evilman has undergone a remarkable transformation. Similar to Hank Thunderman, he made the selfless decision to leave his former life behind for the sake of his family. Now the proud owner of a Mattress Store, Evilman may have retired, but traces of his mischievous nature occasionally surface, adding a touch of unpredictability to his new persona. Remarkably, his powers and personality closely resemble those of Hank, creating a surprising parallel between two former bitter enemies.

However, Evilman's perspective takes an unexpected twist when his son, Link, expresses a desire to be a hero instead of following in his father's footsteps. This news deeply disappoints Evilman, causing him to reflect on his past choices and the influence they may have had on his son. In a revealing moment, Barb discloses that Evilman's descent into villainy was largely influenced by his ill-fated association with Dark Mayhem. As Link and Phoebe form a romantic bond, Evilman undergoes a profound change, undergoing a personal evolution towards kindness and compassion. He even extends his assistance to the Hero League, actively participating in evaluating Phoebe's dedication to righteousness.

Biography[]

Mike Evilman was born and raised in Metroburg, with Super Strength and Flight as his superpowers. He was initially a good guy until he started hanging out with Dark Mayhem, according to It's Not What You Link who slowly helped turn him evil. He had a Ring of Suffering, an evil eyepatch and an ice-base for his evil operations. After becoming a supervillain, Mr. Evilman became one of the toughest archnemesis for Thunder Man. They fought so many times, destroying a lot of cities, but none of them could ever beat the other.

Eventually, Evilman retired from crime and the Villain League and moved to Hiddenville, where coincidentally, the Thundermans had moved to as well. The Thundermans learned that the Evilman Family had moved to Hiddenville in Meet the Evilmans when the Thunder Twins met a boy with superpowers at Splatburger and started researching who he was. They found that it was Link, the son of Mike Evilman. Nevertheless, Phoebe wanted to date Link and Max wanted to meet Evilman so that he could teach him his evil ways and give him his ice-base. So, he used Link's alarm system to bring him over. It took a while for Evilman and Hank Thunderman to recognize each other but Evilman's laughter betrayed him. Evilman was disappointed that his son had chosen to date Phoebe Thunderman and Hank didn't want Phoebe dating the son of Evilman either. He tried to get the Hero League to arrest the family but President Kickbutt confirmed that Evilman had retired from being evil. The fight between the two went on until Phoebe and Link confronted their parents and insisted that they love each other and their parents' differences don't matter. They also made Mike and Hank realize how much they were so much similar.

In Evil Never Sleeps, Phoebe got a call from the Hero League asking her to spy on Mike Evilman since the Hero League suspected that he had come out of retirement and was developing a weapon. It was tough for Phoebe because she didn't want to go after her boyfriend's dad. Phoebe was convinced that Evilman was back to being evil when she learned that Max was doing an internship at the Evilman's Mattress Store. Max believed that Evilman was testing him so that he can hire him as his evil sidekick. When Phoebe discovered a missile under one of the mattresses, she went in to confront Evilman and asked him to turn himself into the Hero League for the sake of Link. But Evilman refused. So, Phoebe fought with Evilman, defeated him and called the Hero League to take him. President Kickbutt arrived and revealed that Evilman hadn't really turned evil. He was just helping the Hero League to test Phoebe to see whether she would choose the right thing over relationships.

Evilman's support for the Hero League continued as he let his son, Link, join the Hero League.

Powers/Equipment[]

  • Superhuman Strength:  Evilman possesses an extraordinary level of superhuman strength that rivals that of Thunder Man. His immense power enables him to effortlessly lift and carry heavy objects, with solid metal yielding effortlessly to his might. In his earlier days, his clashes with Thunder Man resulted in entire cities being reduced to rubble, showcasing the extent of his formidable strength. However, much like Hank, Evilman finds himself unable to break free from the icy grip of Phoebe's freeze breath. Despite his incredible strength, Phoebe's unique ability proves to be an effective means of temporarily restraining Evilman, highlighting the limitations of his power in the face of her chilling capability.
  • Supersonic Flying: He is able to fly faster than sound. The exact limit is unknown, but like Hank, usually, when using this ability, he says "Evilman Rise!" before taking off into the air. However, it is possibly not necessary.
  • Invulnerability: Evilman possesses an awe-inspiring power, effortlessly obliterating even the most resilient objects, like a house's roof, as he crashes through them without suffering any harm or experiencing the faintest trace of pain.

Former Equipment[]

  • Eyepatch: Evilman had an eyepatch that contained Evilinium, which amplify his powers and evil instincts (removing all the good in a person). After retiring, Mike destroyed his eyepatch, but Max recreated it, and his son Harris wore it.
