Dark: I hope you know I am still working on this, so *claps* :D

Actually it is.
Look up how being a mangaka is.
You have to have a deadline, depending on the deadline you have to dedicate a lot of time to working on that manga. So you may not be able to do a few things like everyone else does because you'll be busy all the time.
First you have to know things like the proper panel flow, and other art necessities for comic making. You have to have an art style that appeals to the audience, and you have to make a good story line which could be complicated.
And you also have to get some company that'd be willing to sponsor you. I suggest not making a comic until you work more on your art. But planning is a nice idea. -
Dude, the plot is the most important part to story making.
Work on your plot before everything else. -
Dude, you can't WORK on something withou a CONCEPT. What's going on in the story? What exactly are you writing?
Example of a storyline:
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Harry Potter is the most miserable, lonely boy you can imagine. Hes shunned by his relatives, the Dursleys, that have raised him since he was an infant. Hes forced to live in the cupboard under the stairs, forced to wear his cousin Dudleys hand-me-down clothes, and forced to go to his neighbours house when the rest of the family is doing something fun. Yes, hes just about as miserable as you can get.
Harrys world gets turned upside down on his 11th birthday, however. A giant, Hagrid, informs Harry that hes really a wizard, and will soon be attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry also learns that, in the wizarding world, hes a hero. When he was an infant, the evil Lord Voldemort killed his parents and then tried to kill Harry too. Whats so amazing to everyone is that Harry survived, and allegedly destroyed Voldemort in the process.
When Harry hears all this, he doesnt know what to think. However, everything Hagrid tells him turns out to be true, and with a joyful heart Harry starts wizarding school in September. He quickly becomes best friends with a boy named Ron Weasley, and before they even make it to Christmas, they break tons of school rules when they attack a troll and prevent it from killing fellow student Hermione Granger. After the troll incident, the three become inseparable, and Harry is amazed to have found such great friends. He is constantly busy trying to stay on top of the mounds of homework, as well as participating in weekly Quidditch practices. Quidditch is a popular sport among wizards and Harry is the youngest Quidditch player in over a century. It's also a game Harry loves more than anything else at school.
As the year progresses, the three friends set out to solve the mystery of the gigantic three-headed dog that is guarding something in a deserted corridor in the school. They figure out that a very valuable object, the Sorcerers Stone, is being hidden in the school, although they dont know why. When one of the professors starts acting as if hes trying to steal it, they quickly take action to circumvent the theft.
Things come to a head when they sneak past the vicious, three-headed dog and go down into the bowels of the school, determined to save the stone. Ron and Hermione help Harry get through the challenges set forth to stop the thief, but Harry must go on alone to battle the professor. When he finally gets to the last room, however, hes astonished to find someone else entirely.
Harry is forced to do battle with the wizard that tried to kill him so many years before, Lord Voldemort. Hes able to save the Sorcerers Stone, although hes almost killed in process. The school headmaster, Dumbledore, arrives just in time to save Harry.
The school year ends spectacularly. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are honored for their service to the school, and Harry leaves to go back to the Dursleys for the summer feeling as if hes finally found a place where he really belongs. -
It's like I can't plan now for the future.. it's like I cant think about it now.. okay..
I am still making the comic, bad art or not. -
It's my plan, it's my layout. I don't need your advice. I can do this on my own, and I know I can. Don't take in control of it, because I don't need you too, like the Italians say, KAPESH.

When this fails and you realize that no one gives a f---, you can go cry to someone else. We're trying to help you understand what's needed to make a successful manga/comic and you're being a s--- about it.

Okay, imbecile.
Have fun failing o/ -
Dark: I already know this. And I won't cry. XD
Shido: And when I fail, I can try again.
