Comiso () is a comune of the Province of Ragusa, Sicily, Southern Italy. As of 31 December 2023, its population was 30,086.

==History== In the past Comiso has been incorrectly identified with the ancient Greek colony of Casmene in Magna Graecia. thumb|left|Santa Maria delle Stelle church, Under the Byzantines a new borough began to grow on Comiso's present site around the monasteries of St. Nicolò and Saint Blaise, expanding further under the later Norman and Aragonese domination of Sicily. It was later a fief of the Chiaromonte, Cabrera and Naselli families: the latter, counts of the city from 1571, boosted the economy of the city and built new district outside the ancient walls.
