Does anyone know if this series was cancelled or delayed? The Previews catalogue for comics shipping in August doesn't have a new Stargate: Atlantis comic solicited. The publisher, American Mythology, has other items listed but no Atlantis.

My sense is that they are a fairly small company and they are trying to do a lot. I am not sure they have a monthly schedule yet for any of the products. So far they don't have anything I've seen for sale on their webpage past #2 (atlantis and pink panther). Their property with the most announced issues is Three Stooges with 3 one shots (MGM owns Stooges, Pink Panther, and Atlatis if you were wondering the reasoning behind those random sounding properties) They delivered on the physical kickstarter goods so that alone has me willing to be a bit patient and see where things go. Had enough projects vanish into smoke that I am fairly patient with the people who are producing or updating.
For any comic series to be successful, the issues have to come out on a regular basis. If months pass with no solicitations for fresh issues in a series, the comic retailer is likely to forget about it or assume it's been cancelled. So will the average comic book reader, for that matter. Maintaining a presence on the "new releases" shelf of a comic store is essential.
I want this book to do well, but American Mythology doesn't seem very committed to it. I hope I'm wrong.

Post about a second story arc for SGA comics. Maybe a story after the arc with the grey aliens? This was a few weeks ago.

Hopefully, these things mean continued projects.

I haven't seen anything about #3 I can recall, but have seen talk of issue #4 of 6 by jumping around hashtags to an artist's page:
"Many of you have asked when issue four of Stargate Atlantis: Back to Pegasus will be available. I can now tell you it will be listed in the August edition of Previews with an October release."

Stargate Atlantis returns with a brand new story arc in SGA: Gateways #1!
If I understand this correctly, the Return to Pegasus series only lasted two issues (though the second issue still hasn't made an appearance yet, so it may just be one issue long) and American Mythology is already relaunching the book with a new #1? There was no actual solicitation for the SGA: Gateways title in the AM section, so that may just be an empty tease for an issue/series that never materializes either.
What a mess.

Comixology is taking preorders for issue #3 and says available August 3rd:
https://www.comixology.eu/Stargate-A...l-comic/379929
This Wiki claims "Back to Pegasus" means numbers 1-3 and "Gateways" means numbers 4-6, but each has episodes 1-3 in that 4-6. (Almost as confusing as Fandy's numbering system). Take that table with a grain of salt, because I can't find a link to an official release to back that up (I am also using Google Translate). It also says there are scripts in the works for numbers up to 12.
