Location and uses[]

Magic Glove

Link lending the Magic Glove to Bagu

In the The Legend of Zelda comics by Valiant Comics, Link uses the Magic Glove in a fight against Bagu. When Link finds out that Bagu stole a fragment of the Triforce of Wisdom, Link grabs the Handy Glove and proceeds to hunt him down.[5] He spots Bagu coming back towards the castle,[6] and charges him before the two engage in combat. Link then uses his Glove and is able to heave Bagu into the air and throw him down,[7] forcing Bagu to reveal why he took the sacred relic. When he confesses that he gave the Triforce fragment to Ganon because he's holding Bagu's pet frogs for ransom,[8][9] Link reluctantly allows Bagu to use his Magic Glove so that he can defeat the Prince of Darkness and retrieve his frogs.
