[Link for 2 June](http://www.gocomics.com/pibgorn/) I’ve asked this question a couple of times, but this one is particularly confusing. Did we resolve the Evil Queen thing? Is the program girl/geek thing still a going concern? ---

Did we ever meet the mother of the geek and little evil sister? We don’t yet know just who the Black Knight really is - I suspect he’s an incarnation of the mad scientist (who started this by holding Pibgorn captive). Have we learned that he’s also the father of the geek and sister, or is that just something else I’ve assumed? ---

The evil Queen avatar (who looks a bit like the sister grown up) does not appear to be the actual evil little sister as she took her glasses off the sister’s corpse and considers them “jewelry”. The black night is the ‘in game" aspect the evil power siphoning techno-wizard. The demon-vampire creature currently sucking the succubus’ blood may be another, although we don’t know this for sure. The story should resolve itself sometime in 2011. ---

The geek met him (IIRC) more or less by chance as part of an academic discussion-presentation by the wizard scientist where his scientist peers were laughing at him. He’s already shown he can outsmart the succubus on multiple levels including where she thought she killed him before he captured her. ---

[/QUOTE] I thought she took them off the geek’s corpse. The “vampire” sucking down on Drusilla had hair that reminded me of him. Maybe in this reality one doesn’t die but one can be changed? Pibgorn is fun, but it seems to take a looooong time for the story to get anywhere. ---

It was never shown, only described. The digital sword girl and the geek were hanging back when fight between the succubus and the evil queen engaged, they are assumedly currently unharmed so the geek would not be in a vampire spirit state. It could be anyone, but the form seems more male than female. ---

[QUOTE=astro] The digital sword girl and the geek were hanging back when fight between the succubus [/QUOTE] Yes, I remember “Not bad for an amateur.” 🙂 Didn’t Drusilla drop the geek, though in some contest? What happened? ---

[QUOTE=carnivorousplant] Didn’t Drusilla drop the geek, though in some contest? What happened? [/QUOTE] IIRC: he hit the ground hard, laid there in agony for a bit, then arose as if nothing happened. ---

Meanwhile, Geoff is still back in Central Park, hiding naked in the shrubbery and waiting for Pib to bring him some pants. ---
