This research aims to find out whether webtoons can develop students'' reading comprehension at MA Khairul Hikmah grade 11 academic year 2022/2023. This study uses pre-experimental research, which is research in which the dependent variable is not solely influenced by the independent variable. This can happen because there are no control variables and the sample is not randomly selected. The research design is the planning of how the research will be conducted. From the results of the pretest posttest conducted, there was a very significant increase. The average score at the pretest stage was 71.76, which increased to 81.28 at the posttest stage. The percentage increase of 14.69% found in both measurements (total score and average score) shows that this change is consistent between the total indicators and the average indicators. Data analysis also showed that the t-test value was higher than the t-table value , indicating a significant difference. Thus, the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted.
