Reasons I have seen webcomic authors publicly cite for cancelling their comic mid-storyline:
Too busy

Lost interest

Increasing age gap between characters and author made it difficult to relate

Did the math and figured out that completing the planned arc with their current update schedule would take 150 years

Ostensible author actually a fictional persona that’s now being retired, and they didn’t want the comic linked to their real identity

Realised that the way they’d written the central relationship wasn’t emotionally genuine (note: this was a hobbit porn comic)

The comic’s readership contained too many lesbians

Converted to a religion that regards all representational art as a form of idolatry

Broke up with the person the protagonist was based on

Outed as not actually Japanese

Imprisoned for manslaughter

Aliens
