When the author of a series abandons the storyline entirely — either from lack of interest, time, money, inspiration, or pulse — the series is said to be orphaned.
This isn't much of a problem among professionally produced works, as their large team of creators, profitability, and susceptibility to Executive Meddling make it unlikely for them to be dropped for any reason other than cancellation, though it isn't unheard of.
Unfortunately, the same can't be said for Fan Fiction, Web Comics, role-playing fora, and other amateur works, on and offline. In fact, this is a particularly common problem with them, as many are created part-time by enthusiasts who've never written, drawn, or scripted anything before. They start on the first chapter, strip, or post, only to promptly forget about it. And if not that, they suffer from longer and more frequent Schedule Slips until either they take an "extended" hiatus that becomes permanent or they simply drop the work altogether.
Sometimes, though not always, enough time passes that the abandoned work disappears from the site(s) hosting it. Usually this happens because the account or website hosting it dies off. On rare occasions, such a series resurfaces if the original artist returns to it. Or a fan may even "adopt" the series and pick up where the original artist left off. This is rare, and one reason is that fanfiction writers often find after some years that what they made is now regretful and they would rather forget about it.
Orphaned series are liable to have a bad effect on free hosting services. Lists of works get clogged with abandoned entries, and sites become littered with hundreds of introductory strips. They can also engender a mistrust of the authors who abandon their work, as readers become wary of investing in anything they write in the future.
See also Dead Fic, where a fanfic gets this status (often without any reason given for the abandonment). Compare Vaporware, which is something the creator claims not to have given up on — but almost all the fans have; Stillborn Franchise, which is when a work could have gotten a series of Spinoffs, Sequels, and Prequels, but didn't; and Cliffhanger Wall, where a work ends on a cliffhanger, but the creator then pivots to making prequels, interquels, remakes, and spinoffs instead of resolving the cliffhanger. For when the work is orphaned in a more literal sense, see also Died During Production. If a creator has multiple examples of this on their record, see Attention Deficit Creator Disorder.
It should not be confused with "orphaned works", where a copyright holder of the work is known, but the whereabouts are unknown or cannot be contacted, thus the work cannot be used without the unknown holder's permission unless under Fair Use.

Betrayal at Krondor enjoyed immense success and is now a cult classic. The team that put it together was just starting to work on a sequel when the studio broke up the RPG department and crashed the whole project. A Spiritual Successor, Betrayal in Antara, and a thematic successor, Return to Krondor, eventually appeared, but the first had nothing in common with its predecessor except for the general game engine, and the latter was a sequel in name only. (And Betrayal in Antara would get abandoned itself, though fewer people cared about that.) The actual project intended by the creators of Betrayal to expand on that storyline and tie off all the loose ends, called Thief of Dreams, never saw the light of day.

The fic Hell and High Water was cancelled in 2022, though at that point the last chapter was written two years prior, which itself was written a year after the previous one. The author cited these long update gaps as one of the reason for dropping the fic. The other was the bloated nature of the plot, as he felt there were too many needlessly complicated details, characters, and plot beats. He did suggest that he may revisit the story in the future, albeit completely rewriting it to be more condensed and focused.

Empire from the Ashes (Dahak) sets the stage for an interstellar war of epic proportions, where human ancestors have been fighting genocidal aliens, whose invasions kept nearly (but not quite) exterminating them for millions of years. The first book, Mutineer's Moon, is about a stranded picket planetoid waking from 50 000 years of sleep to enlist the help of the Lost Colony Earth. Armageddon Inheritance is about figuring what killed the rest of the interstellar Imperium/Empire and fighting the invasion, this time with a fleet of planetoids and using exploding stars as death traps. Heirs of Empire is about slowly preparing a counterstrike while surviving a coup and establishing order on another Lost Colony, this time stuck in the flintlock era. And then nothing since 1996. Presumably, David Weber is busy writing about Honor Harrington and Bahzel. Meanwhile the animated adaptation has been in pre-production limbo since the early 2000s.

Object Cringe (Alongside Object Cringe Again) flip-flopped from being cancelled and Un-Cancelled because of Clankybot777's indecision to continue the series. It was re-cancelled seemingly for good after Clanky was accused of alledgedly grooming a minor online and the following disaster of her confusing apology note.

Marvel series NYX was slated to be an ongoing series but after numerous delays by both the writer (Joe Quesada) and the artist was declared a limited series simply to finish out the first story arc.
Marvel later released a follow-up mini-series, with a different writer and artist this time around.
NYX did, however, win a place in history as the first appearance in comics continuity of the successful Canon Immigrant Laura Kinney, aka X-23.

No One Lives Forever was abandoned by Monolith in favor of First Encounter Assault Recon and Condemned: Criminal Origins. The odds of a modern reboot, sequal, or remaster are unlikely now since now no one's sure who even owns the IP.
Contract J.A.C.K. probably killed the franchise anyways.

New Amsterdam (2008): Fox halted production of the show after only filming eight episodes out of a planned 13. The only reason the show even aired was because the network was starving for material during the 07-08 writer's strike. After airing all of the completed episodes, Fox officially canceled it.

Awesome Futuristic Objects lasted six episodes (With its last episode only being half-completed) due to SizzleFlicks's lack of motivation and school.

The Dark Tales released its 18th installment in August 2020. Despite being one of the best-loved developers of the hidden object game genre, AMAX Interactive seems to have closed its doors since then, being either rebranded or bought out by another company, and as far as anyone can tell has orphaned all of its game franchises.

On 2018, Cosmo The Merry Martian was rebooted as as the action-oriented Cosmo the Mighty Martian with the former writers of Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog series, most likely in an attempt to retain the latter's reader base after its cancellation. After five issues, the miniseries suddenly came to a stop in 2020 for no apparent reason, although since the writers were also working on IDW's own Sonic series at the time, it's a moot point.

While the remakes of Lunar: The Silver Star may very well never end, it's safe to say there will probably never be a brand new installment in the Lunar series, due to Studio Alex no longer existing and the absolute trainwreck that was Lunar: Dragon Song.

Generation 3.5 of My Little Pony, which amounted to a style revamp of the G3 designs, lasted only a single year, having just one special and a few toys to its name.

Cursery was a series of PC point-and-click games from Blue Tea Games, sort of a sister series to their Dark Parables, which took classic nursery rhymes and twisted them into dark mysteries. Only one installment, The Crooked Man and the Crooked Cat, was ever produced before this trope went into effect; Blue Tea Games made the decision to shift focus to their mobile titles, and all of their PC game series were either sold to other developers or orphaned.

After Half-Life 2 Episode 2 ended on a cliffhanger, gamers eagerly awaited a resolution in Episode 3 which was supposed to come in by the end of 2007. However, after Valve missed this deadline the project was never seen or heard from again, with Half-Life 2 Episode 3, or eventually, Half-Life 3 becoming one of the most infamous pieces of Vaporware in video game history. During 2016 and 2017, most of the key creative story staff from the Half-Life series left Valve, which many saw as the final nail in the coffin for Half-Life 3's chances of ever getting made.
2020 saw the release of a VR interquel named Half-Life: Alyx, the first Valve-produced entry in the Half-Life series for over a decade, which follows the exploits of Alyx Vance 5 years before the events of Half-Life 2, with the ending suggesting that the timeline was rebooted. This, along with announcements from Valve stating their plans to continue the series, may mean the long-awaited subversion of this trope.

Grej created a Jreg fan series called Realicide. Officially, three episodes have been released with shorts in-between. It was given the Approval of God and is a piece of Ascended Fanon, with the events of Realicide being acknowledged in Centricide to be simultaeneously occuring. Jreg even expressed desire to collaborate with the Grej team one day. However, the series was officially canceled in mid-2021 as the creators were burnt out and wanted to move on to other projects.

An in-universe example is found in Dragon Age: Inquisition. As part of Cassandra's romance/friendship arc, the Inquisitor can persuade Varric to un-orphan a story series he had given up writing - just because she loves it and wants to know how it ends. Despite stating that he didn't like the series and it sold poorly, he agrees, then after he sees her reaction he says that it was Worth It.

Before being released, six episodes for Shenmue were planned. The first episode was critically acclaimed, but flopped financially, so they decided to make the series shorter, by merging episodes 2, 3, 4 and 5 into a single episode, leaving the series with only 3 episodes. But Shenmue II (still universally acclaimed as an awesome game) flopped even harder than the first one (all thanks to the game being released as an Xbox exclusive in America, and the Dreamcast dying out in Europe and Japan), so plans for future games in the series were abandoned by Sega. Creator Yu Suzuki managed decades later to get a Shenmue III done with the help of crowdfunding. But the story still ends on a Sequel Hook and the game has a letter hoping for a Shenmue IV.

Anachronox ended on a cliffhanger. The game was a critical hit with a cult following, but didn't sell too well. Then there's the fact that that the development team was fired the day before the game was released. So no sequel for you.

A fanmade animation by NipahDUBS based on the horror RPG Mad Father ran on YouTube with the goal to have six episodes, according to the description of the first episode. However, only two episodes were made (that tells a little about the beginning of the story) and the project was dropped, according to the second episode's description. It has only "PART THREE IS CANCELLED." written on it, with no reason explained. Both episodes on YouTube had the comments section disabled.

Object Overload had this happen twice. The first time was due to Niall Burns not liking how the show was turning out as the series went on. When the Continuity Reboot came around, only one episode was made when Niall became demotivated.

During the '90s, Joe Madureira started a comic called Battle Chasers, an epic fantasy story of which the first few issues hinted at a huge backstory. But it quickly started slipping from its schedule (because Joe Mad was spending all his time playing Final Fantasy VII, or so the legend goes) to the point where issue 7 was released 16 months after issue 6. The editorial in issue 9 promised that 10 would be out soon, but then Joe Mad left the comic industry altogether, basically leaving the story hanging (although a video game based on the comic has since come out).

Sinful got ditched by Conner Dean before production could even begin due to some controversy on Twitter. Now deemed unreleaseable, Connor had removed all promotional material, images, and a good amount of lore for the show with its TV Tropes page being the only living relic left due to The Fic May Be Yours, but the Trope Page Is Ours. He has since replaced Sinful with a fictional nature documentary called Gikumo.

Joe Murray spent less and less time working on Rocko's Modern Life after his first wife committed suicide. He needed some time to get stuff in order, and to process what happened, and that not only took a lot of time, but made him less interested in working on the series, until he finally gave up on it altogether. For a while, he occasionally blamed the series for his wife's suicide.
A similar turn of events happened with Camp Lazlo, this time the result of a messy divorce.

Super Mario Bros. Z due to how time consuming it took to the animate the fights, as well as Artist Disillusionment. What was meant to be twenty six episodes ended at eight after the creator called it quits. The series has since been revived, however, with just the first episode so far, so there may yet be hope.
Then fans' hopes were severely dashed when the reboot was stopped after one episode because of Alvin Earthworm's worsening mental health struggles. Then on February 2, 2020, he posted a sample footage from his 2nd episode, giving viewers of the series another big sigh of relief.

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn ended on a cliffhanger where Alex, the Big Bad from the previous game, is still alive, Isaac is missing, and there's a massive psynergy vortex hanging over the lookout point from the beginning of the game. Due to poor sales and mixed reception, Camelot effectively shelved the series and all dangling plot threads were left unresolved.

In the mid-90s, three different companies produced comics based on Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. The first company, Gladestone, published two mini-series set in Season Two before passing it to Marvel. Marvel did an adaptation of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie and started two series set in Season Three (one with the Rangers in morphed state and a flip book with the team in Ninja form coupled with stories based on VR Troopers). Only six issues of those were made before it was passed over to Awesome Comics where only one issue of a Power Rangers Zeo comic and an ad talking about a crossover between the Zeo team and Youngblood (Image Comics) was made. Moral of the story - don't make comics set in an ever-changing continuity.

Sokora Refugees, a manga-inspired (in both art and story) comic, was super-popular before its abrupt end after two volumes. The comic's site, after two years in operation, stopped updating in November of 2006 and died completely a few months after. The artist mentioned the author had some personal issues after a few weeks of no new strips. What seems to have actually happened is that the creator landed her own syndicated daily comic strip, My Cage. The demands of doing four panels a day pretty much ensures that Sokora Refugees will remain an orphan unless something happens to My Cage. And now, we've jinxed it.

With Strings Attached was this for a long time. The author, who started it in 1980 and began posting it online in 1997, gave it up in 2002 after her personal life imploded (mother had Alzheimer's, laid off from her job, etc.). The two-thirds of the book she'd finished remained on her website to drive readers nuts. She never thought she would finish it, but in early 2009 she was hit by literary lightning, wrote 300 pages in 3 weeks, and finished the thing. (The final product in book form is over 650 pages long.) She has now released the first half of the long-promised sequel, The Keys Stand Alone.

Aqua Knight was abandoned by the author Yukito Kishiro in order to work on Battle Angel Alita: Last Order. He promised to be back later in the future, but even after finishing Last Order in 2014, there have been no signs of Aqua Knight continuing. With Kishiro focusing his efforts on Battle Angel Alita: Mars Chronicle, the chances of Aqua Knight ever continuing look slim.
For that matter, only two OAV episodes of the Battle Angel anime were ever produced. Even if anybody was interested in reviving an anime version, it wouldn't legally be possible without the involvement of James Cameron, who purchased the adaptation rights to the series to produce a live-action film adaptation. While the film adaptation was released in 2019 after years of development hell, there has been no word on any further anime adaptations of Battle Angel Alita.

Monster Rancher, aside from a bare-bones freemium mobile app, was last seen as a handheld game in 2010, and hasn't had a proper numbered console installment in over a decade. The only speckle of hope is an homage to the series in Deception IV in the form of a Suezo trap. This ended in 2020, where a remaster of the first game was announced.

Seven Seas debuted with four OEL series, Amazing Agent Luna, No Man's Land, Last Hope (2005), and Blade for Barter. Blade for Barter was cancelled after a single volume (with the conclusion to the cliffhanger published online to make it up to people who actually bought the first volume). Last Hope ran for two volumes with a third teased but then hit a wall when a contractual dispute arose between the publisher and the author that eventually led to the series being cancelled due to market concerns. No Man's Land was originally heavily publicized and also had a flash series started, but both the books and flash series were scrapped originally due to the artist and author having too many other commitments, and have been essentially cancelled due the company's concerns over the declining publishing market.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was quite transparently the middle third of a story intended to finish with a third game. Publishers Square Enix meddled with the game by forcing a pay to win microtransaction cash shop, reportedly two weeks before Eidos were going to send the game off for certification, siphoned off a team to create "Breach" mode which was a horrendous game within a game with extreme freemium paywalls, wasted $50,000 on one part of the marketing campaign that gained no traction, royally pissed off the player base with a egregious pre-order bonus stunt and set a release date that competed with Madden, No Man's Sky, Resident Evil 4 and a World of Warcraft expansion, among other things. The massive 5 year dev cycle and wasteful spending required a 3 million sales figure to break even but it came up a million short, Square's executives labelled it a failure, cancelled the 3rd game and put the franchise on ice while redeploying Eidos to work on Marvel-licensed games. In 2022, the Deus Ex IP was acquired by Embracer Group along with several other IPs that Square Enix was sitting on, which could see a return of the series in the future.

When the Monster Musume anime first aired back in 2015, several artists and anons met on imageboards to discuss the series, and decided to create a parallel story starring the Bicycle Cop and girls from the most dangerous liminal subspecies available, as a sort of "evil" counterpart of Kimihito's harem. So Everyday Life with Bicycle Cop was born. High-quality art of the girls was made, along with backstories and info pages that perfectly replicated Okayado's writing and drawing style. Several strips were made to show the interactions between the girls and the cop, like a very funny and occasionally sweet sitcom. Unfortunately the artists either got bored, had other commitments or jumped to other fanbases, so the project slowed down and eventually came to a halt. The anons sent the whole work to Okayado as a sign of gratitude, in any case.

The Sarah Jane Adventures, the kid-friendly spin-off of the modern Doctor Who series, ended halfway through Series Five following the death of star Elisabeth Sladen (the production team weren't willing to replace her or carry on without her). Fortunately, although one story arc — related to Sarah Jane adopting an alien girl — was left incomplete, the series' storylines were standalone enough to avoid any loose ends.

The Chronicles of Narnia survived a Channel Hop of distributors (from Disney to Fox), but then Walden Media's contract with the C. S. Lewis estate ended and so did the film series. The third film's poor reviews and Adaptation Decay certainly didn't help. While a planned adaptation of The Silver Chair was announced back around 2013 which would've be a reboot directed by Joe Johnston, it has since been cancelled in favor of a new reboot of some sort for Netflix.

Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness was supposed to be the first of a new trilogy, however, due to Eidos' constant meddling, it failed spectacularly and Core were stripped of the very series they created. Eidos handed the series to Crystal Dynamics and the original series was suddenly ended in favor of a reboot, starting with Legend. Core made a last ditch effort to release a 10-year anniversary Tomb Raider game, but Eidos simply nabbed all of their concept art and scripts and gave them to Crystal Dynamics for them to make the game — Tomb Raider: Anniversary — instead, leading to poor Core Design ceasing to exist.

Any game released on an episodic schedule can be prone to this if the first episodes don't stir up enough interest and the developers are fired (as is the case with SiN Episodes: Emergence, whose development studio was disintegrated after the release of the first episode Emergence) or lose interest and move on to other, better things (Telltale Games, for example, released only the first two episodes to their Bone series, which were met with lukewarm reviews, before moving on to the much more successful Sam & Max: Freelance Police series).

Freedom Force is a pair of light-hearted yet brilliant superhero pastiches that blended pastiche with actual overarching plots and solid gameplay. Unfortunately, they didn't sell that well so development on the third entry died. Since then the studio has become so focused on (and rich by) making the Bioshock series that the cliffhanger ending of the second game will likely never be cleared up.

Commander Keen ends rather suddenly with an impending battle between Commander Keen and his arch nemesis who intends to destroy the universe. Both Commander Keen 5 and 6 make reference to this impending conflict, but the story was never finished. Unless you count the Game Boy Color version, which doesn't exist.

2020 saw the release of a VR interquel named Half-Life: Alyx, the first Valve-produced entry in the Half-Life series for over a decade, which follows the exploits of Alyx Vance 5 years before the events of Half-Life 2, with the ending suggesting that the timeline was rebooted. This, along with announcements from Valve stating their plans to continue the series, may mean the long-awaited subversion of this trope.

The Avatar: The Last Airbender series Consequences of Our Pasts was meant to be an exploration of the Avatar cycle starting with Aang and show the results of having no Airbenders left for the cycle to use, as well as explore how events in the distant past made the canon War inevitable. Midway through the second of five projected stories, the author put it on hold for over two years due to Real Life concerns, then expressed dissatisfaction and burnout (as well as belief that Embers (Vathara) expressed his intended themes more effectively) before finally removing it all from FanFiction.Net. Only the first part of the first story, The Aftermath: Aang's Book, is now archived here, and that is mostly setup.

Storm Hawks had a ridiculously high-toned Cliffhanger as the season finale, which seemed to be building up a huge journey through the Eldritch Location of the series... only to abruptly end. To make matters worse, even the main character drops a MASSIVE Sequel Hook just before the ending.

Twin Peaks was this for over 25 years. The movie, Fire Walk With Me, rather than concluding the story, was supposed to mark the transition from TV to films, but after its failure at the box office, the follow-up was never made. A revival series eventually aired in 2017, concluding the story at last (or not).

The Sly Cooper series was infamously abandoned by Sanzaru Games in November 2014, even when the latest game ended with a major cliffhanger. This led to fans rejecting the game as canon to restore the happy ending of Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves. Sanzaru was later purchased by Oculus Studios, eliminating all chances of a sequel from them. Time will tell if Sucker Punch or another developer will rescue the franchise and either provide a sequel or a different fourth game.

Bill Willingham's Coventry lasted two issues before it was discontinued. Willingham later wrote two short novels in the same universe. Arguably, his later series Fables may be a continuation of the Coventry universe, so perhaps it was not entirely orphaned.

A well written and hilariously machinima of RuneScape known simply as "The Quest" was started in 2006 only to be left to rot at the end of part two due to the creator apparently contracting AIDS. Needless to say that should the creator wish to continue the work, they couldn't. Runescape has since had a massive graphics update, making this machinima completely dead. Its fandom isn't taking it well.

Final Fantasy XV had a second season of DLC campaigns planned with episodes dedicated to Ardyn, Noctis, Lunafreya, and Aranea that would fill in the gaps in the story, similar to the episodes for Gladiolus, Prompto, and Ignis. Unfortunately, due in part to the departure of head developer Hajime Tabata, the second season of DLC was cancelled, making Episode Ardyn the last DLC campaign released for the game.

Similarly, George Michael's 1990 album Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1 was intended to be part one of a Distinct Double Album, 'Volume 1' containing pop-rock and soul influenced tracks. 'Volume 2', which was intended to be a dance album, was never finished because of disputes with the record company. Michael had recorded 4 tracks for it. He contributed three of them — "Too Funky", "Do You Really Want To Know", and "Happy" — to the Red Hot + Dance AIDS charity album. "Too Funky" was released as a single with the b-side "Crazyman Dance", also recorded for the cancelled album. The Vol. 1 single "Waiting For That Day"'s b-side "Fantasy" may also have been intended for the album as it fits in stylistically. It isn't known if Michael recorded any more songs for the cancelled Vol. 2 or carried them over to his later albums Older or Patience. It is unlikely the record company wanted him talking about unreleased material so it may not be known for a while.

Isaac Asimov: The Complete Stories: The introduction of Volume 1 makes it clear that Dr Asimov was intending to work with Doubleday to republish all of his fiction in a format that would make finding stories easy, but having only 88 stories/poems when his short Science Fiction is more than two hundred shows that at least two more volumes would be needed. Once you add in the Mystery Fiction and Poetry counts, the two lonely volumes look very incomplete.

The Game Grumps are notorious for the amount of playthroughs they've left unfinished, the most infamous ones being Sonic '06 and Pokémon FireRed. While some (such as the ones just mentioned) have legitimate reasons for their abandonment (Dan doesn't want to butt in on an adventure he was never a part of, and Arin wants to grind up so that he can face the Elite Four in a fair fight, respectively), most of them are just dropped for no apparent reason.
The FireRed playthrough was eventually finished, over two years after it began.

The first was PQ Angels, which was discontinued abruptly after only 4 chapters, and Kodansha lost the proofs of the portion that had been written. The manga was never published outside of its original serial run. Her second series, Love Witch, ran for three chapters, at which point Takeuchi had written that she was taking a vacation from which the series never returned outside of a one-shot side story. It was not until the 2005-2006 run of Toki* Meca, expanded from the one-shot Toki-Meka, that Takeuchi saw a series through to its completion again.

The Danganronpa fic series Legacy Of Hope, a reboot of A New Hope (Danganronpa), was ultimately shelved due to story fatigue and loss of communication with the original author (the reboot is ghostwritten). As such, A New Luck abruptly ends on the third story arc, but the author gave out the list of killers, victims, and survivors.

Descendants of Darkness has been on hiatus since December 20th, 2002, due to Yoko Matsushita suffering a hand injury. Her art style has changed somewhat since because of this and she did work a little more on the manga afterwards. However beyond brief periods of "SHE'S GOING TO FINISH IT!" now and then, there's been nothing else beyond a few chapters after volume 11, all of which are finally being put in a 12th volume. Fans are just pretty much begging to hear how she planned to end the series now.

Twilight Pretty Cure was abandoned after the author was accused of mishandling sensitive subjects such as rape. Though she tried to address this problem by rewriting the story to make it less offensive, the backlash against it eventually caused her to give up on it completely with several of the revised chapters still not reposted.

Xenogears and Xenosaga due to a really bad case of executive meddling in the former, and perceived lack of interest in the latter. Notably, while the person behind Xenosaga would love for it to at least be remastered, even he doesn't think there's enough fan interest for it to be profitable. Xenoblade Chronicles 1 continues on the series, but the only thing it has to do with the previous games is Gnosticism. And that one got multiple sequels of its own.

The Yogscast Minecraft Series Tekkit playthrough with Lewis Brindley, Duncan Jones, Simon Lane, Sjin and Sips was cut short after the crew got fed up with what they were doing; they had reached their initial goal of building a factory, but after attempting to revive the series by focusing on bees they decided to call it quits.

Nexus War was called off in a Grand Finale when the creator was unable to continue his work for financial and contractual reasons. One of the supporting developers revived the series not long after with Nexus Clash, but the sequel isn't as well-known and took several years of development to get itself back to the level of quality that players had come to expect from the original.

DC Extended Universe:
Zack Snyder planned an arc of five films that would see the birth, fall, and rise of the Justice League and apocalyptic fights against the New Gods in a Bad Future. Ultimately, only three films were made — Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Zack Snyder's Justice League due to the studio (now called DC Studios) and Warner Bros. having been disoriented by the ferocious backlash upon the release of Batman v Superman (which caused the Justice League film to suffer from it, and the version of Snyder could only be saved thanks to a fan campaign) and having distanced themselves from Snyder as a result.
Patty Jenkins had planned a third Wonder Woman film after the 2017 one and Wonder Woman 1984, but the tepid reception to the latter and a DC movie universe Continuity Reboot plan by James Gunn caused Jenkins to quit and the third film to be canned. Whether or not Gal Gadot will carry on in the reboot remains to be seen.

Age of Steam series of novels by Devon Monk has only three installments, with the third being released in 2013. This is despite the fact the series sets up that there will be seven novels (one for each "Holder" fragment the characters are searching for) and the many plot threads left unresolved.

Xenozoic Tales started in 1987 as a bimonthly, but the artist's increasingly detailed drawings necessitated a gap before issue 4 and a reschedule to come out once every three months. This reschedule lasted only three issues before hitting another gap and ceasing to have a regular schedule beyond "when we get it ready." Space between issues got increasingly long, with only two issues released in 1989. The series had one issue a year each April for the next three years, then skipped 1993 entirely. Issue 13 came out in 1994 and issue 14 came out in 1996. There have been no issues since, though the author/artist has been known to claim in interviews that he will get back to it. Should we hold our collective breath?

Bad Planet by Thomas Jane was planned to be a 12-issue long series, but it was plagued by Schedule Slip during its development cycle. Volume 1 containing the first six issues was concluded, but the second volume hasn't been updated since 2013. Due to lack of funding, it's unknown if the series will ever see its conclusion.

Full Throttle sold well enough that the company intended to create sequels. However, two different attempts to put one together fell apart in the process. As the creator Tim Schafer left LucasArts not long after the first sequel attempt to form Double Fine, and LucasArts went under in 2013, it's safe to call this one dead (outside of a remake).

In the early '00s there was a quirky British comic titled Bazooka Jules, by Neil Googe, about a 16-year-old schoolgirl named Julie Glocke who gets mixed up in a plot involving aliens and super-science and gains the ability to turn into a ridiculously well-endowed Action Girl who can spontaneously pull gigantic pieces of armament out of thin air. It was criticized for the underage Fanservice, but fans and critics enjoyed the humor and Googe's expressive art style. Anyway, around issue #3 (it was planned to run for six), Googe took seriously ill and someone broke into the publisher's building, stealing the material for the planned future issues, which were never recovered. Googe got better and planned a relaunch of the series with artist LeShawn Thomas, but before it got off the ground they hit some copyright issues, Thomas left to do animation work on The Boondocks, and Googe himself eventually signed an exclusive deal with DC Comics. Neil Googe has retained Julie as a sort of signature character, but as a comic, Bazooka Jules seems to be as dead as it gets at this point.

The Tick comic series ended abruptly (right before a big fight with the bad guys) when author Ben Edlund decided to spend time working on the cartoon. He never made it back, and given the current success of Supernatural, it's unlikely he'll be making it back anytime soon.
And especially given that the series has been relaunched under writer Benito Cereno.

Tokyopop was also hit with this a few years earlier due to a contract dispute with Kodansha that resulted in TP losing a large chunk of their catalog.

The Oddworld pentalogy. It was planned to be at least 10 games. To very few people's surprise, this turned out to be not an easy task. So far, there have been 4. Every year or so there's been news about the company making a new game (At least 3 different sequel ideas have been completely scrapped,) or making sequels in the form of films, but nothing ever comes of it. It seems like they may have finally given up on completing the series. They're working on remakes of their old games instead.

This seems to have been the fate of Jak and Daxter. A highly-successful franchise on the PS2, but when Naughty Dog went on to working on other projects such as Uncharted and The Last of Us, the Jak series was left in limbo. There was a new game released for the PSP in 2009, but it was poorly received, and Naughty Dog has said that they tried to make a Jak 4 or a reboot, but couldn't get it to feel like Jak, so—aside from an HD compilation—it looks like we might not see another Jak game for the time being.

Mage: The Ascension's revised Convention books, covering the groups of the game's primary antagonist group, the Technocracy. The first book in the series, Iteration X, was released in 2002, proving to be a considerable improvement over the original... then White Wolf went and ended the Old World of Darkness. Fans thought that was it for the Convention books. However, at Gencon 2011, WW announced they'd be doing the remaining four Convention books, and finally completed the set in October 2013.
On the subject of the oWoD, both Wraith: The Oblivion and Changeling: The Dreaming were ended before the other lines, and both were left incomplete. Wraith's Guildbook series was left unfinished, with five of the thirteen Great Guilds not covered. In Changeling's case, meanwhile, Book of Glamour was announced, but never saw light of day (and is unlikely to, its intended content being superseded by Changeling's 20th Anniversary edition), and the Kithbook series was cut short, with the Boggans and Sidhe not done (though Nobles: the Shining Host is considered an unofficial Sidhe Kithbook). Fortunately, a Boggan kithbook was funded as a stretch goal for the Kickstarter to fund a deluxe version of the Changeling 20th Anniversary corebook.

She's also discontinued The Whole Plate - a series examining various film theories in relation to the Michael Bay Transformers films. Her final word on the series' state came in August 2018, where she said it was on hold due to entering more controversial territory (of the particular film theories she began introducing the series with, critical race theory had yet to be tackled), but it never came to be.

Dino Crisis had moderate success with the first two games, but the third game was critically panned by critics and fans. Between the poor sales of the third game and Capcom wanting to focus on other projects, Dino Crisis fell off the radar since 2003 and there hasn't been a word of when or if the series would ever return.

The Website Is Down released 5 videos in 2009 and 1 more in 2011. The last one was titled Episode 4.5: Chipadmin part 1. More were promised to come soon, but haven't appeared yet (as of June 2016). The website spent years slowly deteriorating (for example, the blog domain expired around 2011). In 2014 Joshua Weinberg announced that the series will continue as an Adventure Game. As of summer 2016 he was still busy playing and analyzing the classic adventure games in his blog and started actual work on the game only in January 2016.

The hardest losses to take were titles like Peacemaker Kurogane and ARIA. Both manga were originally published in English by ADV before they went belly-up. Then Tokyopop rescued the series, only to close not long after.
ARIA eventually got a complete release by Nozomi Entertainment (using Tokyopop branding) after a successful preorder campaign not unlike their similiarly successful Kickstarter of the anime five years earlier. However, they made it VERY clear the early-2023 release would likely be the last chance to ever get the series in print.

The Familiar, an ambitious book series written by Mark Z. Danielewski that was planned to span 27 volumes, with each volume being a whopping 800+ pages filled with interlocking stories and characters, was prematurely halted at less than 25 percent complete after the fifth volume was released, as the publisher lost faith in it with sales being poor.

Team Fortress 2 was another victim to "Valve Time", in this case most regarding its comic series. Initially announced in 2013 for a bi-monthly 7-issue story arc, only 6 issues were completed between 2013 and 2017, and the final issue nowhere to be seen. Following issue 6's release, the development team of TF2 had massively downsized, and in 2019, series artist Heather Campbell confirmed that issue 7 was not in active development as everyone moved onto different projects, and barring the possibilities of "waiting to see if/when the stars align", it seems it'll stay that way.

Pushing Daisies ended after two shortened seasons with many unanswered questions and dangling plot threads, not least of which is the source of Ned's ability.

Drakan and The Suffering are both duologies made by Surreal Software and published by Psygnosis (later Sony, after the former was bought out by them). Granted both series achieved positive reviews and have loyal (but small) fandoms, however neither of them were huge moneymakers while the second The Suffering game is considered inferior to the original and sold significantly less. The developers then helped with the creation and porting of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, then later worked on a game called ''This is Vegas'' (a Grand Theft Auto and The Sims hybrid) for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360... which got cancelled. Even worse is that both Midway Games and Surreal Software closed in 2011 after going through bankruptcy, got merged with Monolith Productions and bough out by Warner Bros.. If anybody ever wants a third Drakan or The Suffering video game, the IP copyright license is in purgatory between Warner Bros and Sony, therefore unless a miracle happens any chances of a sequel to either are sadly almost zero.

The Pirates of Dark Water eventually simply stopped, after about eight of the thirteen treasures of rule were collected. A lack of budget and Channel Hops were the responsible issues, here.

Happens constantly with fan translations of manga and fansubs of anime. One example that left readers disappointed is that of Yawara! A Fashionable Judo Girl. When AnimEigo licensed the series, the circle that had been fansubbing it stopped out of respect. Then AnimEigo dropped it just a third of the way through its 122-episode run, leaving the series doubly-orphaned for a while. Finally the fansubs were started again and completed the run.

Before that, there was the infamous Daredevil/Bullseye: The Target mini-series. Long story short, Kevin Smith did a highly acclaimed Daredevil run in the 90s, and one of the most memorable issues had Bullseye killing Karen Page, Matt's girlfriend. Once Smith finished his run, Joe Quesada asked him to enter into a gentlemen's agreement that Smith would get the first shot at writing any future confrontation between Daredevil and Bullseye, as he'd set the stage for their inevitable showdown quite nicely. A few years later, Brian Michael Bendis had made it known that he wanted to have Bullseye return to the franchise, and Smith reminded Quesada of the deal they'd made. Quesada agreed to let Smith write Bullseye's return instead of Bendis, but on the condition that he do it immediately as part of a limited series. The ensuing limited series (The Target) only ever saw one issue released before Smith lost interest and scrapped the whole thing. He's since said that he regrets agreeing to do the mini-series, as he did it more to hold Quesada to his word than any genuine desire to do another Bullseye story.

While the remake manga did get an ending, the original Birdy the Mighty manga just petered out after a while. Similarly, despite wrapping up the main plot and the arc of the second season respectively, the OVA series and Decode both still had subplots left unresolved.

Girls Kingdom's fourth volume ends on a cliffhanger, with Misaki noting that things are going to get crazy. However, despite the first four volumes being released in less than a year through 2021, there has been no sign of a fifth, leaving fans frustrated. J-Novel Club's site lists the series as ongoing, suggesting that it hasn't been Quietly Cancelled, at least.

Suikoden hasn't gotten a proper sequel since the fifth, with Konami ultimately announcing on their Facebook page that they had no new announcements on the series, and that the development team behind the franchise had been disbanded.
Not quite dead, given the announcement of Genso Suikoden: Centennial Tapestry (official English title, if the game is localized, may differ), although the series that takes place in the same universe has been orphaned for years.

Technically, you might say this of Sonny with a Chance. Season 3 ended with Sonny Munroe (sort of) reconciling with Chad Dylan Cooper and landing a job singing songs in an outdoor café. Before the fourth season was to continue the plot line, Demi Lovato went to rehab to treat self-harm, bulimia and drug and alcohol abuse, as well as her bipolarity, and she decided at the end that returning to Sonny wouldn't be a good thing for her recovery. So Random!, which only loosely brought back the SWAC characters and cast (with a few additions) as part of their "Show Within a Show Becom(ing) A Show", did not mention Sonny or "Channy" at all, used Chad Dylan Cooper as a Random, and was canceled after one season. Demi never even got to guest on an episode as herself or Sonny.

Brütal Legend was intended to be the first title in a series and the ending has a Sequel Hook. The second game had even started pre-production at Double Fine when Electronic Arts swiftly cancelled it in response to low sales of the first title. Years later, when EA dropped support for the title, DF gained full rights to the game, allowing them to finally release a PC port, and the fate of the sequel or new content all depends on whether the PC port sells well or not (which, so far, it seems to be doing much better on PC than on consoles).

The Maradonia Saga. The last new book to be released was Maradonia and the Law of Blood, all the way back in 2010. The series presumably stalled due to its author Gloria Tesch preferring to focus on The Movie. It seems like the creators ran out of money and gave up on the series after the film's premiere, making the story end on an unresolved cliffhanger. Several other factors point towards the series being cancelled: as of January 2020, the Maradonia websites are down, none of the e-books are available for purchase, the only physical copies for sale are used, and Gloria Tesch's website focuses on her modelling. To make matters worse, Gerry Tesch, Gloria's father and the one person who helped promoting and publishing the series, died in 2018. In December 2019, Gloria Tesch released The Secret of Moon Lake (under the new name/pseudonym Sofia Nova) and called it her debut novel, effectively disowning Maradonia.

Sadly, Klonoa had fallen victim to this for years, the series' last console game released in 2001, and last handheld game released in 2005 (outside Japan). There was a brief revival, when the first game was remade for Wii, but sales were very low, so the series was stuck in limbo again. Fortunately, there was an announcement for a Compilation Rerelease of both the first and second console games called The KLONOA Phantasy Reverie Series, meaning that the series is starting to get some activity once again.

MySims ended on a rather abrupt note after SkyHeroes came out in 2010, and aside from a few references in The Sims 4, was never really heard from again. It doesn't help that Electronic Arts shut down Visceral Games, the franchise's primary developer, a few years after MySims went dormant, meaning it isn't likely to come back.

X/1999, perhaps their most infamous example, has been on hold since 2003, with 18 out of a planned 21 volumes released. It ended on a cliffhanger, and the story was building towards a resolution. The magazine that had been publishing it (Monthly Asuka) has since folded, and CLAMP has, supposedly, been searching to put it in a proper magazine - though at this point there are doubts that the group is still making serious efforts to pursue this or continue the work.

Universe Falls, a Steven Universe and Gravity Falls crossover retelling was 102 chapters in, and halfway through what they called "Arc 9" of a planned 11 arc story. There were even preliminary plans to do a sequel series once they finished. They even had the titles for the remaining episodes posted online for what the general flow/themes of the remaining parts of the story would be. But then, in mid 2022, the author announced that he was putting the fic on "indefinite hiatus". In part because of sheer exhaustion for having worked on it for 7 years and no longer considering it fun. In part because they had other stories they were now more invested in. And in part because of a psychosomatic association it now has with the death of their father. While apologetic, they just don't have the flow anymore to finish it out.

The Fey and the Fallen by Stina Leicht ends after only two novels, ending on a cliffhanger as the protagonist decides to work with the church to hunt demons, learns his little sister has magic, has discovered there are multiple fairy courts and learns of a fairy king who has been suspiciously silent in the past few decades while demons have been ravaging the mortal lands. Liecht has gone on to write other works, and while she has never gone on record saying why the series was orphaned, the timing coincides with the publisher, Night Shade Books, going bankrupt.

Xiao Xiao ended with a demo of a beat-em-up game back in 2002. In particular, the Mutilator story, which featured a Professional Killer out to take out an evil boss, ended in an up-in-the-air ending, with the bad guy getting away after a motorcycle chase and the protagonist being reduced to hitchhiking with no success; there was supposed to be a third installment of that storyline that would wrap things up, but it never got made. There have been no signs of the beat-em-up demo or the series ever continuing since then. In fact, the author's whereabouts are unknown as well.

The Croc series ended after two normal games and two mobile games, due to Argonaut Software folding. The mobile games have long been unavailable for download, so the only games most people will play are Croc 1 and 2. A 3rd game in the series was announced but never released. The games were serious contenders to Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon at the time, and could have gone on to better things.

The Divergent Series had this fate given that the final book Allegiant was split into two movies (Allegiant and Ascendant)...that were not shot concurrently.note This was unlike Lionsgate's previous YA franchise The Hunger Games, whose two-part finale was filmed back-to-back, so it was able to release the second even if the first underperformed (which it didn't). Divergent obviously wanted to follow its lead, but the series never generated as much interest as The Hunger Games and the second film underperformed, which should be enough writing on the wall for Lionsgate to cut the films' funding. Part one ended up being a Box Office Bomb, so the next one never materialized.

Viewtiful Joe claimed that there'd be two more times the world needed to be saved at the end of the first game and the sequel ends on a cliffhanger. Odds of the 3rd game ever coming out are pretty damn low now that Clover Studios doesn't even exist anymore, and most of the employees are working at PlatinumGames now, which isn't associated with Capcom.

Mass Effect: Andromeda was set up with Sequel Hooks for DLC content at the end but BioWare, citing poor sales, canceled it and placed the series on a hiatus in favor of Anthem (2019) and a future Dragon Age installment, and a new Mass Effect announcement in 2020 teasing the return of Shepard's crew may be the final nail on the coffin for Andromeda. However, Bioware has hinted that this new Mass Effect game may explore some threads left open by Andromeda.

Despite being renewed for a second season a week ahead of its finale, Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart's first season would ultimately end up being its last due to being part of a massive tax write-off following the Warner Bros. Discovery merger.

Wildsiderz was abandoned by writer/artist J. Scott Campbell after the second issue. In fact, he stopped doing Sequential Art altogether around then — now he does pin-ups and covers. Basically, this is a case of "100% uninterested in finishing it."

SEGA also had the honor of publishing High Voltage Software's The Conduit and its sequel, both designed to fully capitalize on the Wii's processing power. Unfortunately, even though they both end with a Cliffhanger, poor sales of the latter discouraged High Voltage Software from continuing the series.

While the game itself has continued without a hitch, Konami is notorious for creating and then dropping various deck archetypes for the Yu-Gi-Oh! card game. While the anime-based ones are forgivable, the original ones are not, especially when some of those archetypes are left orphaned with only an opening hand's worth of cards to their name. Fortunately, Konami seems to be realizing that they have those archetypes orphaned, and are starting to readopt them with new support in the game's more recent sets.

CaptainSparklez did a playthrough of the Pokémon Gold and Silver remakes, which ended after only four episodes. The reasons for this are unknown, though given the iffish content policy of Nintendo some fans believe that to be the reason.

The English translation of the Kingdom Hearts manga ended on Kingdom Hearts II Vol. 2 after TokyoPop decided to discontinue the series due to financial problems. Good that there are fans who translate where TokyoPop can't, right? The series has since been picked up by Yen Press, and as of October 2013, the manga adaptations for the first three games has been re-released, with another one upcoming.

Wild ARMs appears to be orphaned, given Media Vision has moved on to other projects, such as Shining Ark, Shining Resonance, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, and some of the later games in the Valkyria Chronicles series (3, 4, and Valkyria Revolution).

High and Tight was going to have more episodes exploring the war and how the characters' lives have been affected - alternating between the soldiers who went off to the front lines at the end, and the friends and family left back home. However James Healy moved to Canada, Thomas Fitzgerald became too busy with college work, and Bobby Calloway lost interest - developing The Gumdrops instead. The film however was initially written to be standalone and has an open ending.

Even his Carrie (2002) counts. It's an adaptation of the Stephen King novel that was talked about expanding into a TV series, so it ends openly in the hopes that the story could continue. Despite strong ratings justifying a series, he soon realised the network weren't interested.

The fan-made Transformers Audio Play Transformers: Elite, which focused on Elita One and her team of female Autobots in their fights against Slipstream's group of Decepticons on Cybertron, got up to twenty-two episodes and then stopped on a cliffhanger about an unknown prisoner in Shockwave's lab, whom Elita and her teammates argued about whether or not to rescue. The project's Tumblr blog also went inactive, with no updates since 2016. It took three years afterwards for the head artist to confirm that the series was canceled, explaining that real life responsibilities got in the way and the crew had already split up and moved on to new things by the time those responsibilities were cleared up.

Blinx, due to the dissolution of Artoon, poor reception from critics and gamers alike, the failure of the Xbox line in Japan (where Blinx was supposed to help the Xbox catch on), and because Microsoft elected Master Chief as the Xbox mascot instead.

Happened with some manga in Brazil, especially by publishers Conrad and Panini (the former due to low sales and the latter due to financial difficulties). The most infamous examples are Fullmetal Panic Sigma and Otomen published by Panini which were put on hiatus for 4 years before being canceled. Other notable examples are Guin Saga (manga version), Crayon Shin-chan, Doctor Slump, Peach Girl and the deluxe edition of Dragon Ball. Subverted with Eden: It's an Endless World! which was cancelled by Panini but was republished by JBC years after. The same happened with Monster and even One Piece, which were canceled by Conrad and republished by Panini (in the latter case, the publisher folded right as the CP9 arc was reaching its climax; Panini retranslated everything from the beginning while continuing the series from where it originally stopped).

Left 4 Dead was yet another series that was left abandoned by Valve (Starting to see a pattern here?). The last game was Left 4 Dead 2 which was released all the way back in 2009. This is despite the fact that both the first and second game being released merely a year apart. Although there have been hints on Valve attempting to make a sequel, they were merely rumours and nothing substantial has been released, despite fans begging Valve to make a sequel due to the game's aging engine.
