Valiant Comics
In the Legend of Zelda comic by Valiant Comics, Princess Zelda's overall appearance is the same as in the animated series, and her personality is also similar. Here, the princess is portrayed as a strong and brave woman. Self-reliant and confident, Zelda is a skilled fighter, proficient in archery and  horseback riding. She also possesses a quick wit and usually manages to avoid Link's attempts of affection towards her, but for all her strengths, she  possesses a soft heart that is open to her people and friends. Because of this, Zelda is always willing to do anything for her people and country, even if it means risking her life, which makes her dear to all the citizens of Hyrule. Zelda is also not afraid to take challenges head on, or even fight Ganon on her own, as she helps Link out in his adventures any time she can despite the young hero's advice not to.

Just like in the animated series, Link can be seen trying to steal a kiss from Zelda any time the chance arises, but they always seem to get interrupted by Ganon's minions or Zelda changing her mind. Unlike the animated series, however, the comic makes it clear that Link and Zelda love each other, as they both plainly state it to one  another several times throughout their adventures. Furthermore, in "Assault", Zelda is even willing to give up the Triforce of Wisdom to Ganon in exchange for Link's life, while the young hero is always ready to do anything to protect the princess from danger.

The Triforce of Wisdom is guarded by Princess Zelda, who uses its guidance to help her rule the kingdom wisely. Moreover, the princess can conjure powerful magic spells with the sacred relic when she is in danger. In order to be successful with protecting the Triforce of Wisdom, she has acquired many friends to help her, including her hero and rescuer Link, her nursemaid Impa, King Harkinian, the soldiers of Hyrule, and her horse, Storm. Zelda sleeps in the northern tower in the palace, which is adjacent to the room where the Triforce of Wisdom rests.

During one adventure, Zelda decides that due to Ganon's constant attempts to capture her and the Triforce, the best course of action is to leave Hyrule, taking the Triforce of Wisdom with her. She had heard of a magical flute within the Fifth Palace that would teleport her to a distant place, where Ganon would not find the Triforce. With Link's help, she make it to the Palace but in the end, she decides that the safest place to be is within Link's reach. With this in mind, she insists that Link train her to better protect herself. During one such training mission, Zelda decides she would venture in to the Eagle Labyrinth alone. However, the training ended in her rescuing Link, who had been captured by a Wizzrobe. During this adventure, she wielded Link's Magical Sword, shield, and bombs as she fought multiple enemies including Gohma and Dodongo. Although she was successful, she had immense difficulty doing it in a manner similar to Link's. It wasn't until she obtained a Magic Bow that she learned to develop her own style. With her new-found skills, she managed to defeat the Wizzrobe using only the bow.

Later on, when Link obtained the Triforce of Power, the Triforce of Courage moved to Zelda and with it she faced Link and convinced him to relinquish the Triforce of Power.
