What comic book blogs do you guys enjoy?
One that I visit frequently is "Comic Coverage" by Mark Engblom. The guy is pretty creative, using his own artwork on occasion while writing a fun, unique blog. He has an impressive knowledge of comics that I really enjoy. One of my favorite features of his is "Worst. Cover. Ever." where he displays and picks apart particularly bad comic covers.
You can see his blog here.
What comic book blogs do you all suggest? Jason, I'm sure you have a ton that you're familiar with...
Anyone see Wizard # 201? What did you think of the redesign?

CBR is my home page for news, and I never really got into Newsarama. I haven't been to Rick Veitch's Comicon.com in a couple of years now, but just checking in again reminds me that I'm not getting anything from there I couldn't get somewhere else and there are a number of broken links at the top of the page.
I have a number of blogs I read through a feed I get on my Bloglines: Warren Ellis, Neil Gaiman, Jens Altmann, Tony Lee, Elizabeth Genco, Teddy Kristiansen, my friend Rob Schamberger, another friend Kevin Mellon, Travis Fox' work for the Kansas City Star, Clay's blog, Mark Evanier, Len Wein, Paul Dini, Matt Fraction and Antony Johnston. It makes it simpler for me to just pick up the feeds there and go to one place to read the news from them at one time rather than clicking around and trying to remember the last time I was at their site.
Other than that, I usually tool around and read what I'm pointed to from these guys, or what you point to here. I've toyed with the Comics Reporter, and Comics Journal and the old Journalista! sites, at times, but found them tiresome with too many updates that really don't interest me. I've let other creator blogs go, like Colleen Doran's, as the work they do fails to grab me.
The blogs I'm reading tend to have more to do with creativity in general or science or work-related topics.
Kind of rambly here, and if you want links, I'd be glad to give you some ideas, but all the names are Google-able if you want to follow up on them.
CBR. Usually getting stuff off of their Twitter feed.
