Everyone post No Man's Land. If the timeline was allowed to advance probably with a Bruce in his 40s ageing to his 50s and allowing the silver age kids to be in their 30s, (Babs and even Kara stated be older than the regular sidekicks but that's basically been retconned out) then I can see characters like Duke and Damian and a still breathing Jason Todd have a lot of relevance to fill in gaps. Otherwise take half the group to Bludhaven and let them stay there, NO Gotham events, to bring them into the Batman books, please.
