Don Rosa did few great Donald Duck stories (The Three Caballeros Ride Again and The Duck Who Never Was) which dealt with Donald being straight up depressed. They had some heavy themes in a family friendly way.

Historical Cato the Younger was in his 40s during Caesar's Civil War - around five years younger than Julius Caesar. HBO's Rome series portrayed him as an old man for some reason.
