Is it possible to pull JIRA ticket comments?

When I use a jqlsearch to grab ticket details from a queue (without specifying fields), most fields are returned, but not any of the comments on the tickets.

Viewing some JIRA tickets JSON through the REST API I can see they are all stored under 'comment:comments:' but manually specifying this field in the jqlsearch doesn't return anything.

Are the comments fields available at all?

I do not see the comments available at all. However, I can build a JQL query that searches for a keyword in a comment, Example:
| jirarest jqlsearch "comment ~ tano"and then retrieve the results into Splunk, but I am not able to see the comment itself.
