Not the nominator, but I can chime in for the Homestuck nominations -
The Psiioniic/Helmsman is a cyborg; he was fused with a space ship to act as a living battery/onboard computer.
All the characters with names ending in -sprite are also... cyborgs? Or whatever the name is when you're a combination of human and software rather than human and hardware. The comic features a video game that affects reality, and one of the ways it can affect reality is by allowing people/animals/etc. to fuse with NPC-like 'sprites' it creates, giving them special knowledge and powers but in return forcing them to follow the game's rules and act as pseudo-tutorial-NPCs for it.
