Is This Gratuitous? Madame Mirage #1 Rocafort cover

This week we have Madame Mirage #1 from Top Cow as our contendor for gratuitous glory. I have to admit to a lack of surprise at seeing that the issue was "Oversized" as the cover had pretty much given that away.

The real magic here is how her chest got so, well, hmmm..., busty. I have never seen a wonder bra that is that good, so I am assuming Madame Mirage used a spell? Also I am a bit curious where her nipples are. They have got to be ready to pop out at any moment, but it seems like the top part of her chest is disproportionate to the bottom part. I surely have never seen breasts like that nature.

Once I get past the chest, I kind of like the sassy veil and the tilt of her hat. It just is tough to get to that part as the main attraction is not the face. I am really surprised that Kenneth Rocofort's cover seems to top Greg Horn's in terms of bodaciousness.

As I sit here in shock at the incredible gravity defying nature of Madame Mirage's glory, I can only ask one question.

Is this gratuitous?
