* David Herbert apparently attracts this kind of production with all his works except [https://web.archive.org/web/20130914230208/http://www.livingwithinsanity.com/index Living With Insanity]. [https://web.archive.org/web/20190717190935/http://www.tnemrot.com/ Tnemrot] was supposed to be a print comic and was written in late 2008, going through seven artists before Tatiana Lepikhina joined and is now a webcomic. [https://web.archive.org/web/20131029150620/http://indyplanet.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=3429 Gemini Storm] was also written at the same time, came out in March 2010 and the second issue is still expected to take another month or two before being released. He has also mentioned other projects that haven't gone anywhere due to artists dropping out or simply disappearing.
* [[The Clone Saga]]. To make a very long story short: a mix of artists wanting to do a bit of [[Continuity Porn]] and a bunch of very profit-oriented directives transformed what was originally to be a short special event leading for a milestone number of ''[[Spider Man|Spiderman]]'' into a slog that seeped for ''two years'' and tens of titles, which was unable to be finished despite the wishes of almost everyone involved because it sold well, but the reason it sold well for a long while was because the fans wanted to see how the writers could [[The Chris Carter Effect|finally tie the immense tangled web of subplots]] they wrote themselves into for editorial mandate to keep going as long as it sells.
* [[JLA-Avengers|The popular crossover]] between the [[Justice League of America]] and [[The Avengers (Comic Book)|The Avengers]] languished for 20 years because [[DC Comics]] and [[Marvel Comics]] couldn't decide on ''[[Cavemen vs. Astronauts Debate|who would win in a fight]]''. It was eventually discovered the reasons those decisions took so long was basically [[Executive Meddling]] from Jim Shooter, then the new head of Marvel, whom didn't like the lineup chosen for the crossover (it teamed the [[X-Men]] with the [[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Teen Titans]], when he [[Creator's Pet|preferred]] it wouuld have been with the [[Legion of Super-Heroes (comics)|Legion of Super-Heroes]]) and in true temper tantrum blocked every decision he could.
