Are they of the gothic horror genre?
No.
Are they for goths?
In my opinion? No. Jhonen Vasquez HATES goths, and has said so in multiple interviews. Check out his "Anne Gwish" comic and you'll see. So, no, I don't think they're for goths, though, I don't think he'd care who bought them: he'd still get the money.
Then who are they for?
Most of his comics appeal to teenagers, mostly high-schoolers.
While they're certainly more sophisticated than your typical comics, they're nowhere near the level of "Sandman" or "Watchman" or other such "adult" comics.

I think he's pretty decent, but I can see why you thought his comics are goth: the art style.
It's pretty dark and sort of distorted, but the subjects in his comics are not gothic. Aliens, nut jobs, etc.

Jthm_fan_girl145 I do believe that most Goths read them I highly doubt this. As I said, they appeal to teenagers. Because of this, all the goths at your school may like them, but as you meet more adult goths, you'll find that Jhonen's comics aren't all that popular.

Though it insn't a comic, my mother liked Invader ZIM (she's not goth, but you understand what I'm coming from, right?)

jthm is satire
and yes it is goth, and its just as much a self parody
its complex messages and social commentary wrapped in light comedy
its quite a piece of work
