This tutorial explains how to draw a Comic Character in Semi-Realistic style with Adobe Photoshop but you could use this method for others styles.
Tools : Adobe Photoshop and a Graphic tablet (or a mouse if you haven't)
 Abbreviation
SRB : Soft round brush
W : Width
C : Color
O : Opacity
E : Eraser
GB : Gaussian blur


I use different layers, then I can easily correct my drawing if I need :




You can create additionnal layers like "hair shadow". 
   (I didn't need this layer for Wolverine because his hair is dark).
   First,  I draw in black and white and after I add some layers to change colors.

Create a new document of 1800 x 2100 px 
 "Sketch 1" and "Sketch 2"
   For this drawing, I used 2 layers : the first one for the basic lines and the second one for a more detailed sketch.
I always put the "sketch" layer on the top, then I can choose to make it visible or not. I choose colors that I will not use for my drawing.
   Tools : SRB (W: 4px)
 "Background"
   Create a "Background" layer. It can be black or white for the moment.
 "Skin"
   Draw the basic shape of the skin
   Tools : SRB (W: 20/100 px, C: #bfbfbf, O: 100%)
   Select only the non-transparent areas of "Skin" Layer:
   Ctrl-click (Windows) Command-click (Mac OS) the layer thumbnail in the Layers panel.
 "Shadow 1"
   Paint large shadows. I use opacity between 10% and 15% when I draw shadows with a black brush.
   Tools : SRB (W: 200 px, C: black, O: 12%)
   Apply a GB (15px)
   To correct shadows or lights, use an eraser with opacity of 10%
 "Light 1"
   Paint the highlights (chin, cheek, nose, forehead, body....). I use opacity between 2% and 10% when I draw lights with a white brush. Use different sizes of brush between 20 and 100 px.
   Tools : SRB (W: 20/100 px, C: white, O: 6%)
 "Eye-mouth"
   Define eyes and teeth with a white color.
   Tools : SRB (W: 10 px, C: white, O: 100%)
 "Shadow 2"
   Paint more detailed shadows (beard, eyebrows, nose, eye, mouth, body...).
   At this step, I use different sizes of brush : 4 to 20 px for the head and 10 to 100 px for the body.
   You can use different shapes of brush to draw beard.
   Tools : SRB (W: 4/10/20/100 px, C: black, O: 15%)
 "Light 2"
   Draw more defined highlights
   Tools : SRB (W: 30 px, C: white, O: 5%)
   I draw little lines on the arms to give a comic style to my drawing:
   Tools : SRB ( W : 10 px, C: white, O : 1-10%)
 "Hair shape"
   Paint the shape of the hair and the beard
   Tools : SRB ( W : 25 px, C: black, O : 100%)
   Create hairs all around the shape with the smudge tool
   Tools : Smudge tool ( W : 6 px, S: 60%)
   For long hair, you can add more layers (look at the video tutorial : How to draw hair)
 "Hair light"
   Draw some little lines and use the smudge tool
   Tools : SRB ( W : 8 px, C: white, O : 100%)  Smudge tool ( W : 8 px, S: 60%)
 "Clothe"
   I place this layer behind the skin but you can place it in another place, it depends of the clothes.
   Tools : SRB ( W : 60 px, C: white, O : 100%)
 "Clothe shadow"
   Draw shadows on the shirt. Start with the big brush and after draw the more detailed shadows with the smaller brush. Use the smudge tool.
   Tools : SRB ( W : 30/100 px, C: black, O : 9%)  Smudge tool ( W : 45 px, S: 60%)
 "Clothe light"
   Draw light on the clothes. Use eraser to correct if needed
   Tools : SRB ( W : 20 px, C: white, O : 5%)  E ( W : 36 px, S: 14%)
 "Gradient map for skin"
   I create an adjustement layer "gradient map" for the skin. It allows me to add many colors between black and white :



 "Shirt color", "Eye-teeth color"
   You can create one or several layers to add color to your drawing. Choose "color" in the layers panel.
   Here the color for these 3 elements is the same but you can change them.
   Tools : SRB ( W : 10:100 px, C: #606060, O : 100%) I use an opacity of 50% for the teeth


Your character is finished. You can add background, accessories (claws...)
