Jupiter lies

There was a Flash Gordon comic in which he and his friend visit another friend of theirs who lives on Jupiter and all the while they're there they've to wear a contraption around their waist that enables them to fly like the rest of the Jupiter citizens but once they wear it they're hurtled into atmosphere because it's designed according to X16 the gravitation pull and so after a few tweaks they're able to figure it out and as they're traipsing on that planet there's a coup and a whole plethora of wrong doings out of which they have to extract the Govt official and diplomats all the while fighting the gravitational handicap.
It made so much sense to me as a child and for the longest time I thought that perhaps that is how people on Jupiter lived that was until school and parents broke the mirage to cloud it with nonsensical realities.
