I sometimes read the comments first and sometimes the article first, but I will read the article before writing a comment, if the article loads (sometimes it doesn't). However, I may write a comment of another comment rather than of the article, and in that case, depending on what that other comment says, it might be applicable even without needing to read the article or know what the article says.
