Or just do studies of your favorite artists.

If you think all anime artist just fucking draw anime/manga with no understanding of the basics you need to leave
I don't have the file but there's a twitter post where a doujin artist flat out in fucking romanji(plain english) states that Loomis is good study

What you need to do is grind fundamentals. Read the sticky. Any "how to" book that isn't focused on the fundamentals of drawing is ultimately worthless. "How to draw" comics or anime books are generally shit. Don't waste your time with them. After you grind fundamentals start looking for artists you like and start studying their shit. Take what you like from their work and leave out what you don't like. Western styles are known more for exaggerating anatomy while eastern styles are known more for simplifying it.

What?
I remember a video posted here once. It was a Japanese guy talking to the viewers about Loomis and going through the drawings.
For Marvel/DC style and the like, you may want to read Drawing the Marvel Way by Stan Lee and watch David Finch's GNOMON videos.
