How did they stop him in the end? The Surfer still has powers that match most of the JLA all by himself, its just a matter of implementation -although it would be weird for him to throw a shark against Despero.
The most recent time Zatana froze him and they shipped him off to Oa. Time before that they used Johnny Sorrow against him.
In the most recent battle he succeeded in mind controlling most of the JLA, including the Martian manhunter and GL. Only Superman was able to resist him and it seemed it wouldn't be long before he fell too.
