In the DC Extended Universe film Suicide Squad, flashbacks show Joker convinced Harley Quinn to bathe in the same chemicals as he did. After their break up, a drunken Harley blew up Ace in Birds of Prey.[14]

It "quickly became a mainstay of the pre-Flashpoint DC universe, acting as a prison for metahuman menaces and a medical resource for injured or mysteriously afflicted Super Heroes."[18] In The Flash TV series the S.T.A.R. Labs facility of Central City functions as the headquarter for the team around the titular hero. Perry Dantzler compares it to the Arrow Cave from the Arrow TV series, where a "dark, secretive atmosphere" with "solid walls and dim lighting" fits the focus on crime fighting. S.T.A.R. Labs, in contrast, is a bright space illuminated by natural light, with "white walls and gleaming equipment" designed to "remind viewers that the characters in the lab [...] are primarily scientists first and superhero teammates second." This emphasis on science influences the direction of the show: "The entirety of S.T.A.R. Labs reflects a need for uncovering the truth". S.T.A.R. Labs is a "high-tech space" which through the combination and application of knowledge empowers "the abilities of superheroes to flourish and improve", a "material space" where "superheroes' identities and abilities are shaped" through technology.[19]
