Now, this is a bit more like it. Sue's faced off against many forces in the six issues in which she's had her force-field powers, but arguably this is one of her greatest challenges yet - holding back the pressure of the ocean itself.

Surely the water is coming from the ocean itself, meaning that Johnny is basically taking on the entirety of the Pacific Ocean.
