That's a crazy dream I have too~

But making a comic isn't just about drawing the characters, you have to take time into making the whole story and how this goes into this, develop your characters nicely and make sure you have proper materials for your comics. You don't just make the manga either, there is also making illustrations for things like magazines or art books. ^^

I myself to improve have taken art classes at Ringling College of Art and Design, I really learn from them. I also draw pretty much anytime I can. : 3

Do your best everyone!

Steps to being a Manga-ka

1. Learn Japanese fluently!
2. Stop drawing anime style! Learn realism, human anatomy, depth, perspective, and all that hard stuff that you didn't think applied to manga.
3. Practice.
4. Until you bleed.
5. Do you have human anatomoy down yet?
6. Don't think so.
7. Okay. Now?
8. When you do, you'll probably reconsider.

Lol, i being practicing drawing manga for a while now, and that is the basic for DRAWING. You need to learn inking, shading, paneling, screen toning, and a lot techniques. I don't even considerate myself good enough. Maybe in 2 years i'll be where i want to be.

Here is the best tip for people wanting to be a manga-ka, the most important part is the STORY.

I'd love to be a manga artist, though it's a shame i'm terrible at drawing other than small doodles on my math homework :P

You say the story is the most important part, and I would have to agree And I'm actually a decent fiction writer though I've never tried writing a manga, that will be fun :] I can just use stick figures until I find a decent artist XD

i plan on making a manga-ka team w/ my oldersister. we have been practicing how to draw since grammer school (that is waaay too long) and we also have 3 concrete stories(and rather long let me just add, one of those 3 has 2 other parts) we want to make.
the only thing preventing us from doing it is us.
we are Lazy. =____=
u need alot of determination to do this sort of work.
