  The best comics blog there is, and I read a lot. Updated daily (except for major holidays), clear and attractive design (hardly surprising as it's a comic blog by a professional artist), highly relevant (nothing but comics all the time). I have seldom seen an easier to use site. My only gripe is that the search box is a little lower than I expected, but it's not the kind of blog you search and everything is categorized, so how many points should be lost for that? As for 'Writing Style.' he's witty and informed, pithy and charming.

  Comic Coverage is easily the most fun comic book blog on the web. Mark "covers comics" from the golden age to the present with humor, grace, and style. His knowledge is encyclopedic. His passion for comic art, unparalleled. And even when poking fun of the most trite comic cliches, his love for all things comic-related shows through like a proud parent beaming at his child's piano recital.
