<![CDATA[This study aimed to develop an AI-based E-Comic named SAMBA (Save the Earth Together) as a flood disaster education medium for elementary school students and to evaluate its validity and practicality. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ASSURE model, consisting of analyzing learners, stating objectives, selecting strategies and media, utilizing materials, requiring learner participation, and evaluating and revising the product. The developed e-comic integrates AI-generated illustrations, learning videos, interactive quizzes, and digital flipbook technology to support engaging and contextual disaster learning. Practicality testing involved 47 fifth-grade elementary school students using a student response questionnaire, while product quality was evaluated through expert validation by media, material, and language experts. The validation results indicate that the e-comic is highly feasible for instructional use. Practicality testing based on student responses obtained categorization as excellent, demonstrating that students found the e-comic engaging, accessible, and easy to use. These findings confirm that the SAMBA e-comic is both valid and practical as an innovative learning medium for elementary flood disaster education. This study contributes to the advancement of technology-enhanced learning by integrating AI-generated visual content, interactive multimedia features, and contextual disaster education into an engaging digital e-comic that supports elementary students' disaster preparedness and environmental awareness.]]>
