brush sets! that i actually use

if you download even part of these you'll have a great selection of brushes to start out with without having to pay anything upfront, because they’re all free (!)

Georgw concept art brushes - GREAT textured brushes for painting & illustration, they're very responsive - you'll like these if you're used to traditional art. I recommend checking the instructions for the color tilt function! & Georgw ink brushes - all the ink and lineart brushes you need tbh seriously these are SO good i use them a lot. this guy has LOTS more free stuff

True Grit Texture Supply - free sample available on their website, v suitable for a more comic book style and adding grit (u guessed it) to your stuff. their inkers and grain shaders are great imo

RetroSupply Co - free sampler has a good selection of their stuff, includes some beat tones (dot shaders, like in old comics) so you can play around with whether you like those for your art. I enjoy the pencil and gouache brush in this too

Katrima digital painting set - variety of textured brushes, I mainly use these for adding some more texture at the end of rendering

Devin L Kurtz's brushes (tamberella on tumblr) - various sets with foliage, skyscrapers, etc - once you get the hang of these you can create (impressions of) whole forests, cities etc very quickly

MattyB brushsets - various ones, I have the foliage+splash ones to add some textures to paintings. ink one isn't bad either!
