Mmm.... I don't like blacklists. The blacklist can grow indefinitely and the mantenience can be a time-consuming task. Also, the spammers can use a non-existent random address that cannot be effectively blocked with a blacklist system. (I think about email addresses). Perhaps I don't understand very well how the blacklist system can be implemented in order to block the comment spam, and out there could exist something very useful that can be helpfull. Maybe something like SpamAssassain from Apache Foundation could be used to detect comments that are actually spam, and prevent it can be posted. Just my opinion. Greetings.
