Sure there is --
just don't run them ;)

Or for the disassembly challenged:
MOV AH, 2
MOV DL, 'D'
JMP over
DB 'This is a comment'
over: INT 21h
And you seriously think I've got enough space to do that in one of my
firmware ROMs ?????

Nah, do it this way:
MOV AH, 2
MOV DL, 'D'
back: DB 'This is a comment'
ORG back
INT 21h
Saves a lot of space in your ROM by keeping the comment in the source,
where it belongs. We're still not too serious about all this, are we?
;-) So I can add that you may need to keep your comments shorter near
the end of the object code?
