I was going through the collection and I realized that the Lost in Space comic and the Galaxy Quest comics never finished the storylines that were ongoing before they ceased publication. Or did I just miss them? Anyone know and are there any other comics like that out there?

Do you mean the Innovation Lost in Space? I thought I'd heard that a story left hanging by its cancellation was completed somewhere and it was apparently in this volume from Bubblehead Publishing.
I didn't know there was a Galaxy Quest comic. This page indicates it was announced as a five-issue mini. According to the GCD five issues appeared. Link via Wikipedia's article on the comic.
I have all of the GalaxyQuest issues. The story definintely finished, as I bought them in a combo pack. (I wouldn't sweat getting it, it was a very nonsensical conclusion).
Of course there could be another Galaxy Quest series that I didn't know about...
Are there other small press comics that never finished storylines? Oh, my, yes!
One of my favorites was Private Beach by David Hahn, a book that would be right at home next to Love and Rockets. It was a slice-of-life story about a twentysomething woman named Trudy Honeyvan and her friends. There was some mystical hoo-ha about Trudy being able to perceive the broader universe in a way the rest of us can't. The book ended with Trudy on a road trip with buddies Siobhan and Sharona, who are twin sisters, and crashing their car before being abducted by aliens. Writer/artist Hahn went on to other projects, including work for Marvel, and never, so far as I know, finished Trudy's story.
There was a mini-series called The Lost, which cast Peter Pan & the Lost Boys as vampires that ran for a few issues under one publisher, and then those were eventually reprinted by another publisher, but still stopped before it reached a conclusion.
...In the 90s Marvel issued a MANDRAKE THE MAGICIAN three-issue mini on their Marvel Select line of the time of which only two were published .
Just recently , Brennan published this CASPER AND THE SPECTRALS with kind of interesting " Kid's Vertigo " reworkings of Casper , Wendy , and Hot Stuff...I only obtained one magazine issue , I am unsure whether the advertised two additional parts were issues I, I know for sure that a hyped TPB of all three parts 0- And I even mentioned it here with someone from Brennan re-assuring me after I had commented - never came out !!!!!!!!!

Yea, that was it, I'll have to get that when I get the chance. I might have missed the Galaxy Quest books, I'll have to track them down.

Despite urban legends, the Black Hole comics sequel from Disney did finish. It just wasn't fully published in the USA, far as I can tell.
