There hasn't been an issue published since last summer, but its listed as "ongoing" everywhere I look. Was it ever officially cancelled?

It's basically ended. The 15th(?) issue was the last. But, Brubaker said it's possible it could come back at some point, sort of like what he and Sean Phillips do with Criminal. There is a deluxe hardcover of the entire series coming out within the next month.
On indefinite hiatus. Deluxe HC coming out March 29, iirc.

I'm missing Velvet, too.
I enjoy Kill or Be Killed, but Velvet's the one I'm waiting for.

All three Velvet trades had already been released when I started reading American comics so no frustration due to hiatus here.
That said, I do understand the sentiment. The release date for the next issue of Black Monday Murders (Hickman/Coker) keeps getting pushed back.

I just picked up all 15 issues in the Comixology sale for 11 bucks. Gonna read it when I'm on vacation in a couple of weeks.
Just finished reading the Deluxe HC and I really liked the story. At the end of the book Brubaker says that he may come back with another story with Velvet Templeton, so we'll see. His ongoing series with Phillips ''Kill or be Killed'' is amazing. Can't wait for Vol. 3 !!
Yep. I read some relatively long manga and it's awesome when there are hundreds of chapters already available when you jump in. I can't abide even the weekly wait so I'd let like 20-50 chapters pile up before marathon reading. I love discovering new series that are already completed.

Add me to the list of people who'd love to see another Velvet run.
How about a TV show?
