Abstract

Onomatopoeia is naming objects or action based on the imitation of sounds associated with the object or actions. There are two problems to be solved in this study, namely; (1) what types of onomatopoeic words are found in Justice League comic; (2) how does the context of situation help determine in Justice League Comic. This study used two theories to solve the problems, the first one is a theory proposed by Elizabeth (2013) to identify the types of onomatopoeia, and the second theory is from Halliday and Hasan (1989) used to analyze the context of the situation found in Justice League Comic. The data were collected through library research by reading the comic, identifying the onomatopoeic words, note-taking the onomatopoeic words, and this research used descriptive qualitative method to analyze the data descriptively and qualitatively to support the explanation by presenting the percentage of the data in a table to show which one is the most present data found in Justice League.
