Based on various surveys, it was identified that the reading competence of Indonesian students was very low. The research aims was to implement educative comics based on local folktale and examine its effect on increasing reading literacy of in rural rural primary school students. The research is a quasi-experimental design with pre-test-post-test non-equivalent control group design. The participants were 3rd grade elementary school students in rural Karanganyar Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. Sampling was done by purposive sampling and cluster random sampling technique. There were 58 students in the experimental group and 56 students in the control group from 2 different elementary schools, but their qualifications were both in the good category. In learning to read, the experimental group used educational comic books containing local folktales while the control group used texts containing local folktale. Reading literacy competency data was obtained through paper and pencil tests. The data obtained were analysed descriptively and inferentially using t-test. The results of the study prove that there is a significant effect of educational comics based on local folktale on students' reading literacy competence. Local folktale supported by images is suspected to facilitate the availability of context so that the substance of the text is easier to understand. Therefore, teachers are advised to use image support in learning to cover learning losses due to the pandemic, especially in rural schools which experience many obstacles in distance learning.  \nKeywords: comics based-local folktales, reading literacy, rural, primary students, educational comics  \nINTRODUCTION  \nIn the era of education 5.0, the rapid progress of science requires every student to have more adequate reading literacy skills in order to have sufficient insight and knowledge to be able to compete and keep up with the times (Riyadi, 2021: 110). Reading literacy ability is one of the determinants of one's success. This is because all access to information and knowledge is always related to reading & writing activities (Bayhan, 2006: 10) . Afflerbach (2009: 70) states that reading literacy skills are  \nCitation: Sumarwati., Hadiyah., Muftihah, N., & Menjamin, S. (2024) .

Likewise, Burke, and Baillie (2011: 2) state that reading literacy skills taught from an early age can support the learning process at a higher level.
