The method used develop and test learning media uses the Borg and Gall model. The product trial design used a pretest posttest control group design on students at SDN 2 Jambu as the experimental class and students at SDN 11 Jambu as the control class. Data were collected by observation, questionnaires, tests, interviews and documentation. The statistical test of effectiveness was carried out with SPSS.

The use of interactive comics is effective as evidenced by an increase in learning outcomes. The average percentage of prettest in the control and experimental classes is almost the same, namely 30.00 and 30.67. After being given the intervention, the average posttest of the control and experimental classes increased to 50.00 and 74.83. The results of the t test obtained that the value of t count = 8.803 with a significance level of 0.000 < = 0.05.
