It can certainly be speculated that these titles were cancelled to keep Kirby from killing his own characters.
And that these titles were purposefully revived as soon as Kirby was gone from DC, so DC could have other creators continue the two series (NEW GODS and MISTER MIRACLE) in a way that kept marketable characters from being killed off, instead of in the way Kirby had wanted to conclusively finish them off in the series.



It's debatable the extent to which the New Gods/Fourth World characters can be described as "marketable."
