Here are a couple of American examples.
Dave Sims - Cerebus (Wiki)
Mark Oakley - Thieves & Kings (website)

Or you can try publishers such as TokyoPop to publish "American manga" (or whatever they are calling it nowadays). If you want to try and break into the actual Japanese manga workplace, you have two chances, slim and none.

And since this isn't directly releated to anime, moving the thread to the Manga forum.

I definetily agree with you, but belive that you can create an amerucan manga you just need a japanese publisher (vai mail.) I think tokyopop really isn't that seriuous most of the time and i think manga should be seriuous with a strong plotline.
