Okay, I'm going to open this one up fully to everyone. Last year, Ratna made the suggestion that China Doll and Dr Brand were connected, so far that Brand kidnapped China for his own selfish reasons; I also said I would try and capitalize on his idea too (or at least I think I said that). So, here we are, at this point, where I open the suggestion for looking at a side story, and how it could work, along the same vein as the limited series in comics. It still has an important connection to Human Tank (especially given Brand shows his cards near the end of Rematch), and the First Universe as a whole, while at the same time giving us a little more information about the stuff that's happening behind the scenes (and, as such, not actually involving the Human Tank in a major role).

So, I open this up to you guys: how do you think we should approach the side story? My own contribution sits with how Brand and China came to meet, specifically that they made a deal, which eventually went sour after her arrest with the police. But what do you guys think?
