I also like J. Caleb Mozzocco at <a href="http://everydayislikewednesday.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Every Day Is Like Wednesday</a>; he covers a lot of superhero stuff, but he's a really entertaining writer, and he talks about lots of other types of comics as well. And Tucker Stone's <a href="http://www.factualopinion.com" rel="nofollow">The Factual Opinion</a> is great, putting a lot of derisive, profane humor into mainstream comics reviews, but also spotlighting some lesser-known stuff.

For manga coverage, I enjoy <a href="http://manga.about.com/" rel="nofollow">Deb Aoki's blog</a> at About.com. And three recent adds to my blogroll have been pretty good reading lately: * <a href="http://giapet.net/" rel="nofollow">A Geek By Any Other Name</a> - anime and manga industry coverage, probably weighted more towards anime * <a href="http://slightlybiasedmanga.com/" rel="nofollow">Slightly Biased Manga</a> - manga reviews * <a href="http://www.flaminggeeks.com/swanjun/" rel="nofollow">Soliloquy in Blue</a> - manga reviews Finally, for comics aimed at younger kids, <a href="http://www.goodcomicsforkids.com/" rel="nofollow">Good Comics for Kids</a> is a wonderful resource. I especially like how they look over the Diamond release lists each week and highlight the books appropriate for kids.
