\?(.*)
You want the content of the first capture group.
Try this:
\?(.*)
The parentheses are a capturing group that you can use to extract the part of the string you are interested in.
If the string can contain new lines you may have to use the "dot all" modifier to allow the dot to match the new line character. Whether or not you have to do this, and how to do this, depends on the language you are using. It appears that you forgot to mention the programming language you are using in your question.
Another alternative that you can use if your language supports fixed width lookbehind assertions is:
(?<=\?).*
With the positive lookbehind technique:
(?<=\?).*
(We're searching for a text preceded by a question mark here)
Input: derpderp?mystring blahbeh
Output: mystring blahbeh
Example
Basically the ?<=
is a group construct, that requires the escaped question-mark, before any match can be made.
They perform really well, but not all implementations support them.
\?(.*)$
If you want to match all chars after "?" you can use a group to match any char, and you'd better use the "$" sign to indicate the end of line.
