This clue could be a double definition.

'comedy' is the first definition.

'blood?' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for humour that I've seen before include "Wit" , "Quality of funniness" , "jokes!" , "Mood - comicality" , "Gratify by compliance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
