NO! How many times has the villian revealed his master plan only to allow enough time for the superhero to SOMEHOW come back and finish him off. I would just kill him and then shout it in his lifeless corpse.

QFT

now to leave the room for their killing, and assume everything went to plan.

serendipity: how? that's the only thing i couldn't figure out.
azrael: oh no, i've seen way too many bond movies to know that you never reveal all the details of your plan, no matter how close you may think you are to winning.

Supervillians have to reveal his plan to superheroes, but they should have no qualm doing it AFTER doing it. Examples where they still get to do the long-winded explaination after winning:

1. Watchmen by Alan Moore - "I did it 35 minutes ago."
2. Cartman in "Scott Tenorman Must Die" - explains how he manipulated his friends, Scott, Farmer Denkins, and Radiohead after he had already had Scott's parents killed and fed them to him, then had Radiohead mock him in his gried (well, he didn't tell him about the Radiohead part of his plan, but it still went off without a hitch. Not sure if he was still hoping to have the pony bite off Scott's weiner though).

Then you're not a TRUE supervillain. Likely, said superhero nemesis has thwarted you in the past and you have a grudge against him. Not to mention, your thirst for power is driven by an ego the size of Jupiter. You HAVE to gloat to your broken, battered foe about how your carefully laid plans have come to fruition and you will now rule the area/country/world/etc because that's better then sex for you.

Oh well. I guess I'm just a practical evil person then.
