How to Edit/Remove Blog Comments?

I have a site where we have a blog--and we are currently allowing comments on blog posts. I can log in and see the actual blog posts, but I cannot find where blog comments can be edited or removed.

How do you edit or remove (moderate) the blog comments?

Are you using the ezcomments extension or rather "plain content" comments? The answer will be different depending on this...

We are using the plain content comments. Thanks for your help on this.

Other than going to every single blog post/page and then reviewing the comments and deleting them, is there any easier way to identify all of the comments?

There is an extension by Damien Pobel that adds a page in the admin interface where you can see all contents of a given class - I think that could be a step in the right direction, as you could use it to list all comments at once. You could then  customize its templates to add buttons for immediate deletion / editing.
