Max’s Scooby-Doo spin-off Velma has seemingly been canceled after just two seasons – according to a now-deleted post from an artist on the show.

Background painter Davey Cummings shared backgrounds for the new Velma Halloween Special on Instagram (H/TScreen Rant), alongside a caption.

“So fun working with this crew. There will not be a season 3,” Cummings wrote. “But I hope I get to work with these amazing talented people again one day.”
