The humour in those comics was satirical, witty and self-referential so if they it the humour that way yeah it would be fine.

Some of the darkest, most amazing movies have been ones for kids. If you're mentioning Watership Down as a film example I'll add Animals of Farthing Wood for TV. Den of Geek recently said in an article The Walking Dead has nothing on that cartoon series and they're not wrong!

You've got to have a good balance without a shifting tone. The Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies managed that great.
