I'm aware of all of those points. However, even if Thor has had similar adventures in the comics, the contrast is not between Ragnarok and the comics, but between Ragnarok and the tone set by the previous two Thor films. I've also mentioned (in other threads as well) that the movie having a tone I wouldn't personally use for Thor doesn't mean I won't like it. And while Gunn and Waititi's comedy is different, they are very similar in comparison to the tone of the comedy used in most MCU films. In their films, comedy is given a much more imporant role than other MCU movies.
