One form of creativity is by combining creative elements from digital comics, such as webtoons, with famous traditional literary works that are rich in heroic elements, like the Mahabharata story. This study aims to: 1) describe the process of digitally creating \"the story of Krishna's birth\" in a Webtoon format, and 2) describe the results of digitally visualizing\"the story of Krishna's birth\" in a Webtoon format. In creating this work, the method used is idea exploration through D&D (Design and Development), where the idea exploration involves techniques for processing data into a design, which is then developed into a Webtoon comic work based on the story of the Birth of Krishna. Thus, it successfully concludes: 1) the process of creating \"The Story of Krishna's Birth\" in webtoon format has been described in detail. 2) In this visualization of Creation, it has successfully adapted the classic story into the vertical webtoon format.

Introduction  \nComics have been a popular medium throughout history. According to Ayyub Nurman (2021), Rudolphe Topffer is considered the creator of the first comic to be printed and mass-published in 1837 with his work,\"Les Amours de Mr. Vieux Bois.\" Comics are not only enjoyed by generations but also serve as a means of artistic expression for artists to convey feelings through stories.  \nTechnological developments have brought innovations to comics, including applications and learning media (Layinah, 2020) . In the modern era, comics are no longer limited to print media but have evolved into digital forms. Webcomics, for example, are characterized by a vertical panel arrangement that makes it easier for readers to follow the storyline in a long series (Husna, 2019) . Compared to printed comics, webcomics have fewer panels and shorter stories.  \nOne popular form of digital comic is the webtoon. According to the official NEVER website, the term is derived from the combination of the words \"Web\" and \"Cartoon,\" meaning comics that can be accessed online. Webcomics have fewer panels and tend to have shorter storylines than print comics (Aprilianda, 2021) .  \nWith the development of creative technologies, digital comics such as webtoons can be combined with traditional literary works, such as the Mahabharata, which is rich in heroic elements. In this context, fanfiction becomes relevant. Mirmohamadi (2014, p. 5) describes fanfiction as a rapidly growing form of writing, involving the adaptation or rewriting of existing media content, sometimes without permission  \nAdaptation of the Fanfiction Comic “the Story of Kresna’s Birth” in to Webtoon Format. I Putu Egga Putra Adnyana [et.al](et.al)  \n(Fathallah, 2017) . Fanfiction allows fans to develop new characters or stories, add alternative themes, and create \"what if\" scenarios (Sinarsi, 2024; Eduarda et al. , 2024) .  \nOne character that is particularly appealing for adaptation is Krishna","cbCair7p9FEZ6e3s","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCair7p9FEZ6e3s","pdf",396017,4,1,19,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n# Method","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of this study?\",\"answer\":\"To describe the process and the results of digitally visualizing “the story of Krishna’s birth” in a webtoon format.\"},{\"question\":\"What method is used to develop the webtoon adaptation?\",\"answer\":\"An idea exploration approach using Design and Development (D\\u0026D), which turns processed data into a webtoon comic based on the story of Krishna’s birth.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is webtoon format suitable for this adaptation?\",\"answer\":\"Its vertical panel arrangement supports readers in following long storylines, making it effective for presenting the adapted narrative digitally.\"}]","Adaptation of the Fanfiction Comic “the Story of Kresna’s Birth” into Webtoon Format | PDF",1787790703,29,{"code":4,"msg":32,"data":33},"ok",{"site_id":25,"language":24,"slug":34,"title":13,"keywords":35,"description":14,"schema_data":36,"social_meta":86,"head_meta":88,"extra_data":90,"updated_unix":29},"adaptation-of-the-fanfiction-comic-the-story-of-kresnas-birth-into-webtoon-format","",{"@graph":37,"@context":85},[38,53,68],{"@type":39,"itemListElement":40},"BreadcrumbList",[41,45,48,51],{"item":42,"name":43,"@type":44,"position":21},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":46,"name":47,"@type":44,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",{"item":49,"name":12,"@type":44,"position":50},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/",3,{"item":52,"name":13,"@type":44,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/adaptation-of-the-fanfiction-comic-the-story-of-kresnas-birth-into-webtoon-format/149044/",{"url":52,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":24,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":62,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":63,"interactionStatistic":64},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":42,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-03","2026-08-27",true,{"@type":65,"interactionType":66,"userInteractionCount":20},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":67},"ViewAction",{"@type":69,"mainEntity":70},"FAQPage",[71,77,81],{"name":72,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":74},"What is the main goal of this study?","Question",{"text":75,"@type":76},"To describe the process and the results of digitally visualizing “the story of Krishna’s birth” in a webtoon format.","Answer",{"name":78,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":79},"What method is used to develop the webtoon adaptation?",{"text":80,"@type":76},"An idea exploration approach using Design and Development (D&D), which turns processed data into a webtoon comic based on the story of Krishna’s birth.",{"name":82,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":83},"Why is webtoon format suitable for this adaptation?",{"text":84,"@type":76},"Its vertical panel arrangement supports readers in following long storylines, making it effective for presenting the adapted narrative digitally.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":52,"og:type":87,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":89,"canonical":52},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":25},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":92},[93,97,100,104,109,114,119,124,129,132,136],{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":94,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":96},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":98,"slug":99},80,"literature",{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":105,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":106,"show_sort_weight":107,"slug":108},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":110,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":111,"show_sort_weight":112,"slug":113},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":115,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":116,"show_sort_weight":117,"slug":118},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":120,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":121,"show_sort_weight":122,"slug":123},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":125,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":126,"show_sort_weight":127,"slug":128},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":127,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":130,"show_sort_weight":127,"slug":131},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":133,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":134,"show_sort_weight":133,"slug":135},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":137,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":138},"General","general"]
