Sci-Fi has used sensory depravation tanks for a while. Even non-sci-fi. The first episode of the original Hawaii Five-Oh had the bad guys using a sensory depravation tank to get information out of people It was redone for the new series (only Wo Fat was just a hallucination this time).

This isn't that different from various Star Trek or Star Wars comics or novels. Some stuff is put into context, or "earlier prototypes" are shown. There are a bunch of Star Trek novels (called The Lost Era) that cover events alluded to throughout TNG.

I do love the idea of exploring some of the other kids involved in the experiments because I think there is a lot of story that we can get from that in the Stranger Things "universe".

These comic books, are the "canon"? How involved are the Duffer Brothers in these books, will they respect the continuity that these comics establish - or is it like George Lucas and the legacy SW stuff, in that he'd only respect the comics/books if they don't contradict what he wants to do?

I don't think they're involved at all with the comics so it will probably turn out to be the latter.
