git log --perl-regexp --grep='^(?!.*comments).*12.*$'
The first part fails to match if the line contains 'comments' but it does not consume anything, so the second part '.*12.*' begins at the start of the line and matches '12' anywhere in the line.
Of course you can extend the positive and negative parts, e.g.,
git log --perl-regexp --grep='^(?!.*(comments|abc)).*(12|def).*$'
means "lines that don't contain `comments` and don't contain `abc` but do contain `12` or `def`
