After finishing DH, I agree it is highly dramatic, but it is also 
much funnier than any book since CoS or PoA, IMHO.  The Trio, and 
especially Harry, make some really funny comments amidst all the 
seriousness.  This isn't the time or place to get into details but I 
laughed quite a bit.  

Re HBP, while mostly serious, there are a few good "Harry" comments, 
e.g. "Nice suit, professor" to Dumbledore about his younger 
self, "You didn't see that coming?" to Trelawney when she was thrown 
out of the Room of Requirement by Malfoy, and of course "There's no 
need to call me sir, Professor."  Harry's reactions during Quidditch 
tryouts could be handled comically, as could his reactions when he 
gives Ron the fake Felix.  Plenty of fodder for Dan's comic 
potential.
