[DC] I'm a crime boss. My local hero is no big deal, but he joins the JLA and I have to deal with the frigging flash and A-list heroes every week. What are my options?

Serious question. 

In the justice league cartoon this happened to Lex as superman used the help of the JL to stop his corrupted empire. 
Luthor formed an injustice league of his own but totally failed.
Then he joined the legion of doom and even took over...didn't go well.

So, I'm no Luthor but I just want to keep the A-list A#$holes out of my operations...What are my option in the DC universe? (Any universe)

Be a criminal who establishes order and stays away from the really gruesome crime that affects regular folk.  Punish your goons who cross the line and bring unwanted scrutiny to your organization.

Taking you out will cause things to get worse as turf wars ensue over your territory by people who don't have the same code of honor as you.  You become part of the establishment, even if you are crooked and have an illicit income stream.
