Any books where the villains plans fall hilariously apart on their own? (sh.itjust.works)

Curious if anyone could recommend any books where the bad guys fail more by just repeatedly shooting themselves in the foot, then anything the protagonist does to try to stop them.

Not exactly what your looking for but: https://www.amazon.com/Top-Hat-Express-Adventure-Vaudevillain-ebook/dp/B0CM8PY73V

Top Hat Express

Quite a few villains in that and they do some wacky things. Its a fun romp. I like the first book more than the subsequent ones but I enjoyed reading it.
