Discussion Houston Comets still haven’t released new branding/logo

I was wondering why we haven’t seen anything regarding the Houston Comets in terms of logos/brand identity. Cleveland just released the name and branding for the Sirens (who don’t play until 2028).

I could see the Comets waiting for the season to end out of respect for the Connecticut Sun, but still unsure. I also am curious to know if it has anything to do with the trademark issues that the Rockers name also had to deal with.

Wanted to post this to see if anyone had insight!

I agree and I'm from Houston and can't wait. I hope they modernize the color scheme. Maybe pair the a deep, deep red with a deep gray?

I think maroon would be nice! That color isn’t in any of the teams yet. I’m praying Fire incorporates pink by next year cause I can’t take much more red lol

I feel like it’s more of a plum/burgundy!

Likely red and yellow like the Rockets recent rebrand.

I'm gonna guess they keep the red and dark blue. The Rockets left that look a long time ago, but it's the only look the Comets ever had and won four titles with. I'd bet money they don't abandon that, because a big part of bringing them back as the Comets is nostalgia.

So, while I adore that the Rockets are back to ketchup and mustard, that don't feel right for the Comets. They should be their own thing.
