Biologists use mathematical models as part of their research regularly. However, in schools, biology lessons rarely use mathematics, even if using it benefits understanding the biological content. Aiming for this integration, we designed an interdisciplinary educational comic with biological and mathematical content, where the chosen theme from biology was natural selection. This paper outlines the educational comic content and the principles used for the development based on the story, visual and content aspects. In addition, it focuses on how the content of natural selection is combined with the mathematical content in a way that we call a symbiotic approach.
