Yup I have a collection of it here in this page. The first one that started it all is the how to draw manga series. You should consider buying a manga drawing software too :D .. Hope my page helps.

Well for staarters, how good are you at drawing the body? Just get a plain drawing book on anatomy and joints, that is where a lay doll comes in. Then practice on and on ill the shape is right. THAt is a harder way but the best of a friend's teacher's way. She is an art student in her class.

um i dont know much manga drawing books. But i have found a great book that combines manga styles with american comic styles . . and it helped a lot, and mt drawings are that much better now. It's called "Drawing cutting edge fusion : American comics with a manga influence" by Christopher Hart.

The best how to draw manga books are How to Draw Anime and Game Characters Vol 1-5 by Tadashi Ozawa. They stand out beyond the other How to Draw Manga Books. Check them out on Amazon.com. But for other great books that you should get after mastering the basics of manga are: How to Draw Manga:Male Characters, (but avoid the female characters book bcuz it's basically hentai (manga porn =.=), How to Draw Manga:Perspectives, How to Draw Manga: Illustrating Battles (highly advanced), How to Draw Manga: Martial Arts and Combat(also advanced), Let's Draw Manga:Fantasy, and More How to Draw Manga Vol 1. If you are a beginner....
How to Draw Anime and Game Characters Vol 1

Well, hope that helped. I wouldn't get all the books at once. The books at amazon.com are each 13.47 each. Start by getting the 3 beginner ones I listed (esp HTDAGC Vol 1). The rest, you get as you improve.
