Gee, I wonder what the title was originally?Anyway, Al Milgrom once said there's no excuse for drawing hands badly, as most people have at least one at the end of each arm! I used to look at my own hands a lot, when drawing. Fortunately, I have internalized most of what I needed. But, especially in comic art, it comes down to the same thing as for trees and fire and hair and all the other things that can be tough to draw. Find a stylization that works for you, and go for it! I'll add this, tho, which I first posted years ago: In the basic shape of the hand, the three middle fingers come straight out of the wrist, with the thumb and pinky hanging off the sides. In profile, there is a "ramp" of tendons that drop across the back of the hand from the wrist bones to the knuckles. Good luck!
