Sketchbook I am new to drawing, any advices? June,2012

Hello!

So as you can see in the thread title, i am new to drawing. For some time now i have been wanting to learn how to draw, but i know nothing about it. I went on and sent many mails to people whos art i found inspiring and asked them where i should start. All of them said that i needed to draw everything i saw, but also practice on the human body.

Because the thing is; I want to learn the comic style kind of drawing. A little like this monster http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=221166#. So they told me that comic style is to simplify reality (and add some things too of course).

Now, the problem is not that i dont know where to start, but i am not completely sure why i do what i do. I have been drawing eyes lately, but what afterwards?
Shall i take one and one piece of the human body and then put it together later?

All help is very much appriciated!

Note: Also, do anyone got any good tutorials and pro tips for me? :)

Edit:
If this is the wrong topic, please redirect me to the correct one. This forum is very confusing!
