From The Comics Journal:
"Clark’s the guy responsible for Comedy Central’s Ugly Americans, as well as one of the artists most responsible for the art and comics magazine Mammal. Another Mammal artist is Benjamin Marra, and while Raw Edge doesn’t read as something Marra would have created, it reads like the product of someone who shares Marra’s interest for better or for … well, just better, really. It’s a science fiction setting similar to what you’d find in Blade Runner, Akira, or whatever author those particular things was inspired by or stole from, populated by a bunch of hot-tempered characters going through the selfish, noir-staple motions required. The only hint that Clark might not be taking it seriously isn’t found in the story or dialog–there’s no real irony or winking to be found–but in the cover, where the cover logo combines a BMX Bandits font with the steel italics you’d see on a cereal box, if the cereal had some sort of industrial characters hanging out on a scaffolding. Likability goes a long way, and this one has way more than it even needs. On second thought, this is as good as my wry cowboy. Hell, it’s almost better."
