The main question is: What do you mean by "comments"? You probably refer to 
the comment part of a user ID. But it has not been determined what exactly 
that refers to.

A key comment in a technically more correct sense would be a signature 
notation (which you can see with --list-sigs only and you also need --list-
options show-notations).

You can create these notations with --cert-notation. You must call gpg once 
for every key then:

1)
gpg --expert --cert-notation comment_en at openpgp-notations.org="mainkey" \
--gen-key

2)
gpg --cert-notation comment_en at openpgp-notations.org="encryption subkey" \
--edit-key 0x12345678 addkey

3)
gpg --cert-notation comment_en at openpgp-notations.org="signature subkey" \
--edit-key 0x12345678 addkey
