Abstract

This research examines the influence of graphic novels on the reading comprehension of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students at Madrasah Aliyah Laboratorium (MAL), a government-run institution in India. This research aims to assess the influence of graphic novels on the enhancement of students' reading comprehension. Employing a pre-experimental approach, the investigation administered pre-tests and post-tests to a cohort of 34 high school pupils. The data indicates a considerable improvement in the reading comprehension scores of the children after the use of graphic novels. The results indicated a distinct association between reading graphic novels and enhanced understanding. In this study, the researchers discovered that the findings acquired from the pre-test and post-test were very significant, as the subjects had a substantial improvement in their score values both before and after undergoing the therapy. This research provides evidence to support the use of graphic novels as a very successful instrument for augmenting reading comprehension in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) schools.
