Black Manta proposed that they have it in the ocean, Captain Cold proposes to have underneath the polar ice caps, and Gorilla Grodd proposes that they have it in the jungle. In "History of Doom", the Hall is shown being constructed in a barn just after the Legion formed. In "Doomsday" after Sinestro, Black Manta and Cheetah are abandoned by the rest of the Legion after they take control of a mental device, they use it to create another Hall of Doom, which attacks the original one and enables the Legion to be captured. Its defenses included laser weapons and the ability to time travel. The Hall of Doom's mobility could be controlled through remote control helping the Legion to escape on several occasions. It could fly or enter space using rockets. The facility, which has a close resemblance to Darth Vader's helmet, could be lowered or raised above the swamp water's surface.

When the Challenge of the Super Friends season was originally conceived, it was named Battle of the Superheroes and featured the introduction of Captain Marvel to the Super Friends. The episode "History of Doom" showed that Lex Luthor assembled 12 supervillains in order to form the most powerful and sinister group the world had ever seen. Other times, the Legion of Doom (or portions of it) would end up apprehended. In some episodes, they would escape capture through a last-minute escape plan often contrived by Luthor. In each episode of Challenge of the Super Friends that they appeared, the Legion of Doom would enact a plot against the Super Friends and a plot to take over the world only to be met with defeat by the end of the story. The Legion of Doom has since been incorporated into the main DC Universe, appearing in comics, as well as further animated and live-action adaptations, and also video games.
