I can't draw, but I want to make a comic book.?

Question

So, for the life of me, I can't draw.  I am, however, really good with computers, software, programming, etc so I'm hoping to use a computer to make my comic book.  
I've seen plenty of software out there to help make comic books, characters, etc but I was hoping to get other people's opinion on what software is the best for character design and comic book creation?  

Thanks in advance for your help!

Photoshop, illustrator, paint tool sai, corel painter, manga studio, flash...These are all the common ones I can think of off the top of my head.  There are a bunch of free or low cost indy options out there now too.

But no software is going to make up for a lack of artistic skill.  You will either have to simplify your idea to something you can pull off on your own, or hire an artist to draw it out for you.

You can buy all the software you want but you probably won't be able to get around the fact that someone needs to draw it.
