I know he becomes Emporer Palapatine in the orginal Star Wars Trilogy, but in the prequels, he isn't evil yet is he?

As Astral said, he's the architect of all that we eventually come to see in the movies (well, that we already saw, lol). He's definitely evil...he's just conniving and leading something of a double-life :p
