Gilgamesh felt his courage return.

They charged at Humbaba like two wild bulls.
The monster let out a deafening cry,
his roar boomed forth like a blast of thunder,
he stamped and the ground burst open, his steps
split the mountains of Lebanon,
the clouds turned black, a sulfurous fog
descended on them and made their eyes ache.
–Gilgamesh: A New English Translation,
Stephen Mitchell

The evidences from the passage that best supports the conclusion that Gilgamesh is brave are the following:

"Gilgamesh felt his courage return"

"They charged at Humbaba"

These best supports the idea that Gilgamesh is brave since if they weren’t Gilgamesh would not feel his courage return and they will run away from Humbaba.
