Yeah. I think it's more this aspect (which I love) that keeps them from being kids' fair rather than anything they actually do with violence. The Mirage series is very embracing of its underground roots.
"Sky Highway" doesn't have anything objectionable in the way of content on face value, but it's so out there it's clear it's not for really young readers. Ditto on the fact that a lot of the Mirage series is just kind of a(n intentional) bummer. It's adult in a subtle way rather than an in-your-face violence/darkness way.
