Comets unveil brand identity as WNBA officially returns to Houston
"This is a landmark moment for the Comets, for Houston, and for the continued growth of women’s sports,” said Gretchen Sheirr, president of business operations for the Rockets and Comets.
On Thursday, the Houston Comets unveiled a new brand identity, marking a significant moment in the return of one of the most iconic franchises in women's sports. The team's new logo was revealed at a celebration in POST Houston, alongside legends and fans. The Comets, one of the WNBA's original eight franchises, won four consecutive championships from 1997 to 2000, establishing the league's first dynasty.
The identity honors the team's historic championship legacy while introducing a modern look for a new generation of fans. The logo, featuring an ascending "H" with a moving basketball and four stars representing the Comets' championships, symbolizes the pursuit of greatness and the team's connection to Houston. The Comets are now owned by Tilman J. Fertitta, the owner of the NBA's Rockets, and will have a high draft pick and ample cap space for the 2027 season.
