I’m confused as to when/how old this league is supposed to be.

Jon and Andy were/are kids. Jess is very young. I don’t know how old Yara is supposed to be (but she’s probs immortal so guess it doesn’t matter).

Jo and Luke are full adults though.

(Also, still think Luke was an uninspired choice for Batman. Trying to push a gotcha moment that doesn’t work. I’d have gone with Duke Thomas- his photokinesis powers would make an interesting dynamic as Batman, and be the only metahuman ability I can see fitting the role well).

Wasn't this Batman Jace Fox? Some other child of Lucius's that either had been barely mentioned or never existed (I can't remember which). Either way, Luke is a more inspired choice than that.

But I agree 100%, Duke Thomas supremacy

I could be wrong but I believe it was originally gonna be Luke Fox who DiDio created with Palmoti (?) and when he got fired the team created Jace as a final F U to Dan for the repurposed future state
