What are the futures and prospects will I get if I choose to be a comic artist?

Basically, I don't have any skills, experiences and qualifications of a comic artist. I want to be one of the most leading comic artist in the world. Anyone can tell me, is the future of becoming a comic artist bright? What do I need in order to pursue this career? All opinions are welcomed. Even experienced comic artist too. Thanks.|||First of all, have a big dream, crystallise it, set up short term goals. Undergo vigorous training. Show your talents infront of a leading director, get a comic role, put all out efforts to give the best performance; then you will be in the limelight. This may be for a shorter period, but you can take up film producer/film director role and make enourmous money, and earn good name in the industry.|||If you can get in to one of the major comic houses like Marvel or DC, then your future is pretty bright. Most comic book artist move on to become writers as well. Then, it's an easy jump from comic book artist to screenwriter, because the formats are very similar. Tighten up your drawing skills, sharpen your writing and understanding of grammar and you should be on your way.
