    That has been coded into the theme. I don't know of any plugin that does it.

    You could copy the .commentbox and .comments-link parts of the CSS, and add this to the post block in index.php
    
       <div class="commentbox">
          <a href="<?php comments_link(); ?>" class="comments-link" title="Comment on <?php the_title(); ?>">
          <big><?php comments_number('0', '1', '%'); ?></big><br/><span>Comments</span></a>
       </div>
    
    Code (markup):
    I haven't tried it so it might not work properly.

    Cool! Thanks for the rep :)

    I had a look through all of them, and the only one that is even close is a Feedburner clone. It has a great settings page but it only changes the colors, not the shape.
