In a 2007 interview with Michael Lorah for the Newsarama website, Lapham revealed that the series, including the final issue of the current story arc, was on hold indefinitely: NRAMA : I've got to ask, what is the status of El Capitan and Stray Bullets?DAVID LAPHAM : It kills me to put Stray Bullets on hold like it's been.

Following a brief hiatus, Lapham returned in early 2015 with another new story arc/series titled Stray Bullets: Sunshine & Roses that ended after 42 issues in August 2020.

Lapham plans to continue publishing Stray Bullets in this fashion at Image, with each arc treated as a discrete series.

Lapham additionally published two issues of the Amy Racecar Color Special in 1997 and 1998, starring the alter ego of lead character Virginia Applejack.

The first three story arcs in the series were originally collected in large-size hardcovers which were published in a format similar to European albums.
