Ah, but you see -- warning, personal theory time! -- the Bill Heterodyne in Monday's page is just a projection, and resembles Lars (who always played Bill on stage). The flashback-Bill in the Dragon From Mars tale also looked just like Lars, although we hadn't yet met him at the time!
I'm betting that what everyone is seeing there is Adam and Lilith, accompanied by a nifty steampunk hologram by Gil, with visuals vetted by the circus folk perhaps. Distraction, don'tcha know ... 8D
I'm sure the Real Bill resembles the Real Bill a bit more closely -- and I haven't completely given up on the idea of Agatha's meeting Dad & Uncle in the flesh at some point. ;]
Hmmmm. Either that or (sudden thought) it's all an illusion of Master Payne's magic ...
Good point about Lars, though, alas, he appears to have died.
Adam and Lilith-- Punch and Judy-- were really sick, quite some distance away, a small number of hours before this scene occurs. And Gil seemed fully occupied taking care of them.
Um, I haven't seen the hardcopy story between Girl Genius 101 and GG Advanced, but I _thought_ that Adam and Lilith were hurt in GG 101 and that the above Grand Entrance just took place in Advanced.
Was there an intervening panel of Adam and Lilith, and if so, where?
Re: quite some distance away, a small number of hours before
Okay, so not a hologram, but solid. I was ready to eat crow, until I saw the page.
I'm still seeing glowing interference-pattern-effects there. And really, I'm back to suspecting Gil -- can't be Klaus, after all, since he's rather smunched right now ....
Of *course* I recognize those guys. That's why I was a little surprised not to see anyone resembling them more clearly among the GG Heterodynes. But given the plate-of-spaghetti story line so far, I have no idea how many Heterodynes there may be, or which ones these are. Or how many are real Heterodynes and how many are posse, for that matter.

Ergo, (Tah-dah!) by the process of elimination: an illusion by Master Payne, who would understandably model Bill on Lars. 8?

Can I use the "I knew them before they were dime novel heroes" line, now? :-)

Back to the original topic, though, weren't there pix of Lucrezia and Bill (Mark II) in the locket?
