It might be funny for the balloons to get popped by other things too.
The more durable they are, the funnier it is when something innocuous pops them. Granted, the more they get popped, the less funny it is, but there’s still a clear upper limit on how durable these balloons can be.
I’m not a metallurgist or an engineer but I feel like dropping a great big satellite dish on a bunch of tubes made of very thin steel might destroy those too.
It’s almost like we’re reading a comic about a SWAT-like clown agency, with clowns that have actual superpowers, others being more like batman where their gear and skill is the superpower!
maggie can copy (most) people’s routines and fighting styles.
but not innate talents/powers and strengths, like strongman being really strong.
so how much of her training before they started moving openly was just lung capacity?
Those things need a whole lotta love. Ten years gone just to make it fly well enough to get over the hills and far away is out of the question. Going to California? Not a chance.
Adventurous Apparition of an Antiquated Aggravation
Maggie sure knows how to commit to the bit, I’ll say that much
I love how much fun she’s having with this fight.
Simply delightful. I have the biggest grin on my face.
maggie i love you. maggie my love my light my everything
Soooo… Maggie just made herself a bigger target in a very fragile vessel…
Can Mustard FINALLY get a win here? >.>
The balloons are as strong as steel so not very fragile.
They got popped by a satellite dish.
Well that was because it was funny

I think popping the balloons like that was meant to be badass, actually.

Looks like the auction house’s about to get a BIG surprise from above when that thing arrives to loom over their heads!
Huh. There was a huge blast shot into the air at the auction house, so logically this must be above it when that scene happens.
Oh, yeah; forgot about that.
well this is just getting silly
Silly? Perish the thought!

….this is giving real The Noise vibes, from Pizza Tower.

I think clowns would develop the tech for blowing up balloons really fast before teleportation.
That’s why nearly a decade passed between her “death” and her public reappearance as Echo.
…I can’t say I have a better explanation.
Meant that as a reply to Yeet.
Using balloons as, well, kind of a balloon! THAT is thinking outside the box!

You say that now but my concrete blimp is running into some issues.
Don’t even get me started on my lead zeppelin.
You think you’ve got it bad? I’ve got 99 red balloons!

Dear God.
HINDENBURG.
Even worse: it’s a Clowndenburg (or in this case, a Mime-denburg)!
Oh, the clown-manity (or clownity, if you will)!
Thx for “Mime-denburg”!
You’re welcome!
My god.
She made a balloon out of balloons!
Talk about an explosive getaway.
