The Donovan Gloves

Nothing says "Ready for Action" more than when Mike dons The Donovan Gloves. From Original Mini-Series, thru Final Battle, to the weekly Series, lizards beware when the gloves come out! From trading places with his converted son in a tunnel, to delivering Visitor supplies undercover in order to gain access to an enemy building, to fistacuffs with Ham Tyler...there is only one thing my favorite Resistance Hero needs to accomplish the tasks at hand....

And that is: The Donovan Gloves.

Now, where can I get me a pair?

Yeah, I wonder why he puts them on at certain points. Maybe to cover up sweaty palms from being nervous about confrontations?

Lets not forget the shirt needs to be unbuttoned at least half way down.

With those gloved hands and hairless chest showing through nothing was gonna stop Donovan!

"The" gloves! Here is a close-up from the "Visitor's Choice" episode:

Because he doesn't want to harm his hands/break a knuckle while punching the living piss out of alien scum. Plus, it adds tough leather and makes his punches harder and prevents sweaty palms while holding his gun.

Plus... it looks totally badass.
