After my review of the comics:

1. Yes, they are part of the DWU. We cannot disqualify them on the grounds of Rule 4 because they were written as part of the DWU.

2. No, they are not part of the DWU. While there is no evidence that they are intended to be set outside the DWU, they are intended to be parodic. Our community discussion has determined that even with no explicit statement of authorial intent, we can still invoke Rule 4.
