But mainly that's what you get for using that ridiculous noodle.

Noodles are awesome, how dare you sir!

Not very, apparently -- or at least when compensated by the water. We know from Steve that the depth at that point is enough for an adult to stand on the bottom with head above water, so in the last panel Marten's standing on the bottom and pulling her up. BUT Momo's not THAT short... if she was able to stably walk upright on the bottom with the water completely covering her head far enough so no floating hair gives her away, Marten would have had to be free-floating above, and noodle or no noodle he would not be able to just lift her with his arm, but rather he'd have been dragged under.

Steve was standing on a rock (or turtle!), and Momo appeared without her head above water; but your logic is right, that if she can pull herself up using Marten's buoyancy, then she can't be much heavier than water. But enough to thoroughly unsettle Marten's equilibrium, both mechanical and mental.

Bellisario's Maxim, people. The Boss is trying hard to produce quality comics while simultaneously attempting to quit smoking without the love of his life in the same house at the moment.
