Kane either killed him or he actually didn't show up for their showdown.  Unreliable Authors, remember?  Everything's written from the character's points of view.

Well, it could be both. Gingerbread Man didn't show up, and later Kane killed him. Or Kane killed him, and that's why he didn't show up...

Kane stated he didn't show up - got distracted by a merchantman or something.  If he had, and had whacked Gingerbread Man, well, one of two things: he'd be crowing from the top of the mast, or else he'd claim he never showed up because of all of Ginger's Facebook Friends.

My comment was based on a recollection from something in 4E.

Last reference to Gingerbread I remember was in the SR3 book SOTA64, where Kane says he hears his (G's) show is still very popular with the senior citizen circuit.
