Series which were officially licensed by an English publisher, but were ultimately left incomplete (or not even released). This isn't a very comprehensive list (and older licenses are probably underrepresented), but I aimed to have a variety of examples across different publishers.

Thanks to ertiis for suggestions!
& let me know if there's an error or any suggestions of what to add.

*doesn't include fully released series that went out of print, or series that were published as compilations (ex. Oishinbo, Golgo 13), or license rescues

Potential series: Freezing

In the early-to-late 2000s, a few prominent English manga publishers also took on localizing Korean manwha, most notably Yen Press and TokyoPop. This was, of course, long before webtoons took the West by storm, so these were all originally print manhwa, and thus were also localized in English only in print* (with the exception of a select few that were re-published digitally in subsequent years.)

A downside to this is that basically all of these titles are not only out-of-print in both languages, but a big chunk of them virtually cannot be found anywhere on the internet, both in terms of scanlations, or for purchase. And even if they are, they're usually incomplete or low quality. Just something to keep in mind if you wish to seek out any of these titles.

I was surprised that there wasn't a stack for this already, and because I own a very small few of these titles myself, I took it upon myself to make a somewhat definitive list for my own satisfaction, and also to help anyone else looking for something similar.
