History OrphanedSeries / WebComics

* ''[[Webcomic/NationBeingThing Nation-Being-Thing]]'' last updated in September 2022. Drawings of the characters are still posted occasionally until the creator began to stop posting anything related to the characters altogether. [[https://twitter.com/basessilis/status/1763031044067090498 In one of their tweets,]] they confirmed that they have abandoned the series due of the series isn't a concept/project that they can do anything with.

* ''Webcomic/HashtagBlessed'' - no updates since July 2019 though there is a note saying it will return.

* ''Webcomic/RealLifeComics'' has gone through several periods of dormancy. The first serious hiatus was in December 2015. The comic finally returned in September 2018, nearly three years later. It then updated until July 2019 and stopped again. It returned in June 2020 and has been updating on a fairly regular basis until going sporadic in late 2022 and as of this writing the last comic was posted on November 18, 2022.

* ''Webcomic/{{Pilot}}'' has not updated since March 2019 and its Platform/{{Twitter}} account has been deleted.

* ''Webcomic/OurWorld'' ended chapter 4 with a {{Cliffhanger}}, and the creators decided to take a short break. Next year, when their host Webcomic/TheKatbox shut down, they were still unavailable. In 2021 they stated they were busy with their lives and were not planning to continue the comic.

* ''Webcomic/BendersAndBrawlers'' is one of the Website/TheDuck comics that hasn't returned from the Aug. 2013 server crash.

* ''Webcomic/BlankIt'' went on hiatus in 2012. It managed 2 more pages in 2015 then nothing. The author started a Website/{{Tumblr}} comic called Kaleiope but that got four pages and a bit of background info before turning into a random doodles blog.

* ''[[Webcomic/DoubleK DOUBLE K]]'' quietly slipped further and further from its set schedule, and basically stopped updating in 2013. This was accompanied by the author gradually deleting his online presence, starting with his online store, then the comic's site on Platform/SmackJeeves, then his {{Website/Tumblr}} and {{Website/Twitter}} accounts, and then finally, after a long period of inactivity, the mirror of his comic on his Platform/DeviantArt account. Though that doesn't mean the comic can't be found anymore, as the comic's surprisingly large readerbase had already created several pdf files of the comic as well as an Imgur mirror which you can find a link to in the comic's works page.

* ''Webcomic/{{Pilot}}'' has not updated since March 2019 and its Website/{{Twitter}} account has been deleted.

** ''Eversummer Eve'' was a series that had been running for a few years before Wirepop got the series archive along with new updates. As a prominent comic at the time, it was used to promote Wirepop's launch. It updated rather faithfully for a few years until it suddenly stopped updates altogether. Eventually, even the archives departed quietly in 2008. The site for the comic bore an update of 2008 claiming the series would not continue until either a reboot or remake while the author pursued more lucrative endeavors. In mid-2011, even that site went down and what was left of the comic vanished with it. [[https://www.deviantart.com/denisesjones The author stated on]] Website/DeviantArt that while that particular iteration of the comic isn't coming back (in part due to the old domain being taken by someone else), she hopes to revive it under a different name.

* ''Webcomic/TheCobraDays'', a Metal Gear Solid 3 comic following the QuirkyMinibossSquad of the game, slipped majorly at one point. After over 11 months without a single update it was officially cancelled. However, the author posted a link to a video serving as the series finale on her Website/DeviantArt page, so she at least wrapped up the story that was already in progress when she last updated.

* ''[[Webcomic/DoubleK DOUBLE K]]'' quietly slipped further and further from its set schedule, and basically stopped updating in 2013. This was accompanied by the author gradually deleting his online presence, starting with his online store, then the comic's site on Website/SmackJeeves, then his {{Website/Tumblr}} and {{Website/Twitter}} accounts, and then finally, after a long period of inactivity, the mirror of his comic on his Website/DeviantArt account. Though that doesn't mean the comic can't be found anymore, as the comic's surprisingly large readerbase had already created several pdf files of the comic as well as an Imgur mirror which you can find a link to in the comic's works page.

* ''Webcomic/OlympusOverdrive'' went on a long-term hiatus in 2015, and the comic's website has since gone offline. According the the creators, it was never intended to be a full comic project, and was mainly a way for them to practice for larger-scale projects in the future; as both of the comic's creators would soon be working on Website/{{Hiveworks}}' upcoming project ''Webcomic/SleeplessDomain'', they decided it would be best to put this comic aside for the time being. The comic's artist Oscar Vega did express, however, that while he doesn't feel that the story was well-suited to a comic format, he does hope to eventually revisit ''Olympus Overdrive'' in some form.

* ''Residence Life'' abruptly stopped updating sometime before 2004, eventually losing the domain and later yet disappearing from Website/ComicGenesis.

* ''Spellshocked''. A furry[[note]]the cast included humans, {{Beast M|an}}en, dragons, a cockatrice, and stranger things, like the InvoluntaryShapeshifter headmaster, who had the cause of the last world war sealed inside him[[/note]] comic about a quarter-dragon from a family of actors enrolling into a magical academy and immediately befriending an accident-prone sophomore GadgeteerGenius, a gray fox. Featured really nice art, likable characters, deeply fleshed-out "post-fantasy" {{Magitek}} world with DarkAndTroubledPast. The first incarnation started on Keenspace (now Website/ComicGenesis) in 2000, immediately received a lot of positive reviews, praising its potential, but ground to a halt in the middle of an impromptu play telling the world's backstory (there were rumours of creative team's RL problems). The strip was rebooted in 2001, went into a slightly different direction, moved to a site of its own and halted again. The author tried to continue or restart the story several more times, meanwhile filling the site with more background info. The site has since fallen into disarray, but at least two partial archives still exists: [[http://spellshocked.comicgenesis.com/d/20010101.html CG archive start]], [[http://spellshocked.comicgenesis.com/d/20020215.html end]]; [[http://delyria.com/spellshocked/ Delyria chapter 1 index]].

* ''Webcomic/{{Avalon}}'' is perhaps the most notorious case within webcomics. The series was tremendously popular; but as real life concerns overtook Josh Phillips' writing and artwork, the schedule began slipping for weeks and later months at a time. Eventually, he called it quits, posting a written outline of the series ending in the forums, and announcing that he would be starting a different series (''Two Eighty''), which ended after four updates.

* ''Webcomic/RealLifeComics'' has gone through several periods of dormancy. The first serious hiatus was in December 2015. The comic finally returned in September 2018, nearly three years later. It then updated until July 2019 and stopped again. It returned in June 2020 and has been updating on a fairly regular basis since.

* ''Webcomic/ChoppingBlock'' has not updated since december 2014.

* ''Fight Cast Or Evade'' - a [[FurryComic furry]] [[TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons D&D-based]] adventure comic, hasn't been updated since July 2007.

* The fantasy horror FurryWebcomic ''Webcomic/{{Vigil}}'' stopped updating in late September 2010, the author citing lack of enjoyment in making the comic as the reason.

* Creator/StephCherrywell has a rather bad habit of abandoning his comics without a clear conclusion. ''Muertitos'' and ''Webcomic/{{Intragalactic}}'' sort of petered out, while ''Webcomic/GorgeousPrincessCreamyBeamy'' ends with a climactic scene that nevertheless looks like it should have gotten at least one more page.
