'''Prankster Comets''' are special levels thatwhich appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They affect galaxies by changing the gameplay of the level.
 
==Game appearances==
In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', there are five different types of Prankster Comets, each one a different color: red, white, blue, yellow, or purple. They appear occasionally in the orbits of the 15 major galaxies, starting at the point when [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] collects his 13th [[Power Star]]. The missions can only be done if the player travels to a galaxy with a Prankster Comet in orbit. Prankster Comets only appear in galaxies after a specific Power Star in any given galaxy is collected. Also, when a Prankster Comet is in orbit, the player is forced to choose its level. No option is given to choose "normal" levels. However, [[Comet Tico]], who is positioned near the [[Terrace (Super Mario Galaxy)|Terrace]], can shuffle the comets between available galaxies if fed 20 [[Star Bit]]s by the player. Its actions either remove all comets from orbiting in galaxies, remove some of them, or make some appear.

By completing the event, the player receives a Power Star. While a Prankster Comet is in orbit of a galaxy, players need to completely restart the level each time they lose a [[Extra life|life]], instead of coming back at the last checkpoint. Once a Prankster Comet's star has been collected, its star becomes a selectable mission, only causing the comet to return to the corresponding galaxy at the player's request. All the Prankster Comets (except Purple Comets without time limits) also have their own music that plays during their missions.
 
===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', Prankster Comets only appear once the player has collected a [[Comet Medal]] in a certain galaxy, as well as a certain number of those from other galaxies (and collected at least four Power Stars from World 3). In this game Prankster Comets with different effects are no longer considered different types of Comets. Galaxies under the influence of a Prankster Comet are given a generic symbol. Below, the ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' comets are grouped together based on the title of the mission they appear in. Comets are now yellow if they give Power Stars, while green if they give Green Power Stars. Traveling to a galaxy with a comet in orbit opens up the comet Star mission, although the player may have the option to select a normal mission, unlike in the first game. Also, a Prankster Comet is always in orbit around a galaxy once unlocked, unlike in the first game, where completing a mission can move the Prankster Comet to another galaxy. Certain galaxies such as the [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]] and [[Boo Moon Galaxy]] do not have Prankster Comets.

*In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Mario and Luigi do not fall asleep while idle when a Daredevil Comet is active.
*The Speedy/Daredevil Comet music also plays toward the end of the missions [[Sunbaked Sand Castle]] in the [[Dusty Dune Galaxy]] and [[The Sinking Lava Spire]] in the [[Melty Molten Galaxy]].
