Abstract: This study’s primary purpose is to venture into developing and evaluating the effectiveness of comic-based materials for teaching physics in junior high school. A sequential developmental and evaluation design was employed, with 15 grade 10 students from Visayas State University Integrated High School participating. Bloom's taxonomy guided the creation of open-ended pre-test and post-test questions. The comic strips were developed, evaluated, and tested. Results indicated substantial inter-rater agreement on the comic strips’ effectiveness in learning (74%) and entertainment (77.14%). Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between the performance of grade 10 students before and after exposure to the materials, demonstrating the effectiveness of the developed comic strips in enhancing student learning. Additionally, the study found that the developed comic strips are acceptable and can serve as an impactful teaching tool in physics education. The findings contribute to the evolving landscape of innovative instructional methods and hold implications for enhancing physics education.
