No, neither Steven Universe nor Mighty Max are cosmic horror, neither uses such as a base, just an occational spice to help round out their universes. (One of the best ways to use it  IMO) Evangellon on the other hand was infamous for that sort of overblown nonsense. FLCL was basicly one giant middle finger to the series, cosmic montrosities, full blown character development, catchy tunes which only hung around as long as they needed to, protagonist who resents only being told they are too young to comprhend things, the audiance itself really only being given half the story and series run that mangages to get all this done in only six episodes; and yet it is more entertaining, well rounded and subversive in those six episodes that Evangellon manages to be in it's entire run yet being basicly about the same thing; alien robots, representing fallen angels and teen age angst; The big overriding difference being FLCL actually makes a point to say that the universe doesn't care about such thins so get over them as soon as possible, while Evangellon reveals in it.
