I really want to draw my own comic...I had an idea going a while ago but it fizzled out, now I'm kind of stumped.

It will be either plagiarsm or something innovative but meh (in order to avoid plagiarism). Just forget it.

 

If your drawing/painting is good. Go for it and create art. You know those stuff that can be sold dozens of thousands of dollars.

A young man who is physical perfection personified fights off the hordes of monkeys that invade his home and kill small adorable young animals. He must not only maintain his bromance with a Viking, he also wants to try to find love... (he gives up after five minutes and goes and get a hooker) and he must reach the end of all of his anime and manga.

 

Will this man be able to defeat the monkey hordes? Will his bromance fall apart? What other evils may threaten our Adonis of a hero?

Will he ever be able to finish hordes of anime and manga?

Please. That's a subplot. No one cares about subplots :P

I'm thinking of like a bi-polyamorous type of romance where the guy gets the guy and the girl and kills things along the way

Being able to draw nice and clean would be a good premise.

write about a cop who arrests masked vigilantes with superpowers. We need a good deconstruction of superhero plots nowadays.

I have a few good ideas but I'll keep them to myself.

I don't want to get banned.

My advice?

World Build. Even if you're writing a story that takes place in say, 2015 New York City: World Build. Even if you are writing a piece of fan fiction from a video game world or cartoon show or book or whatever: World Build. Gather information of the setting and write out about the world stage, events both real and factional (assuming fiction and all that jazz), and essentially lay all the foundation down before you work on a plot.

Once you have the basics of the plot laid out, progression, character roles yadda yadda. With a comic, lay out both the overarching plot, progression, yadda yadda, then do so for each individual comic strip or episode or- whatever. Then you can worry about characters.

Then, once you get characters properly set up with background information, abilities, yadda yadda, then you can worry about character connections. Friendships, rivalries, romances, origins of, progressions of, foundations of, et cetera.

Never start from the top and work down. You might want to write a story about 'A Character who goes around and fights demons and has a romantic interest and-' but without the world and the plot being founded and written down first, it makes you more prone to wandering in your writing whether you realize it or not. Anchor yourself from the beginning.

So. . .Yeah. World build from the World itself (take a goooood long time on this, especially if you're making a whole new world of your own! Write the rules here and abide by them!), Plot, Characters, then Character Connections.

 

------------------

Otherwise? Progress slowly and work on drafts, review them after you've written a section and perhaps have other people go over it. You might think its perfect, but other people might spot problems you've missed. I'd like to see more once you've started.

Ok. Here's my pitch.
A team of superheroes forced onto a reality show. The twist? They all have really lame powers.
Dental Master: Who has shiny, indestructible, white teeth!
The Inch: With the astounding ability to grow and shrink a whole inch!
Magician Matthew: Fighting crime with cheap dollar store magic tricks he bought in bulk!
Static Lass: Who can mildly annoy people with minor electric shocks!
Nightcap: Who can make people yawn!
And Robby The Wonder Boy: He's real good at soccer!

I thought you said they were lame super powers?

Being awesome at soccer is the greatest power there is.

If you want to draw comics it's probably a good idea to study some gestures and storyboarding so you can pump out some attention grabbing visuals.

 

Not critical, but really helps.
