If you just want to create and sell your original designs, then a place like cafepress or spreadshirt might work for you. They print on demand, so there's little to no overhead costs.
If you want to sell popular designs, then you could buy wholesale from places like newworldsales.com. They sell officially licensed designs from movies, bands, cartoons, etc. You just have to remember that there are dozens of others sites and businesses already selling those same exact designs, so you'll need to have a unique or strong way of marketing and advertising to get customers.
Either way, you'll need to work up a marketing plan so you can have an idea of how you plan to actually get people looking at those designs. If you search the forums form
marketing, you should find lots of tips.
