Orla, how old is Kon supposed to be… or like is that impossible to measure currently? Is the way his age treated giving us free reign to call him an adult… he’s definitely an adult to me but like is he in his twenties… mid twenties…?

He has two sets of ages, chronological and not… I think that complicated things more.

Hello! To answer your question we need to sort of untangle how old Kon was before Flashpoint, and what happened to him immediately afterwards.

Kon's aging has been weird historically, and for a good while everyone thought that Kon couldn't age at all and he was going to be stuck at age 16 forever, however this got fixed and his aging was stabilized as he aged to approximately 17 pre-Flashpoint.

Then Flashpoint hit and this is where things get muddy.

Young Justice 2019 written by Bendis tells us that Kon, still in high school and still assumedly 17, was teleported to Gemworld that exists in an alternative dimension just before Flashpoint hit so he avoided the reboot entirely as explained by Bart.

While on Gemworld, he meets Lophi who was very late in her pregnancy with baby Martha and he lived on Gemworld long enough for her to give birth. After Lophi gives birth, Kon remains and helps raise her daughter for at least a few months. When we last see Martha she is still a baby and not a toddler so it's unlikely he spent longer than a year there. Meanwhile for Tim and Cassie YEARS passed (boo).

So Young Justice unfolds, they all find Kon and they take him back to Earth and we can assume that because he was in high school before he was zapped to Gemworld, and because only a few months passed, he is still, unfortunately... about 17, maybe 18 (hopefully), around Young Justice 2019.

Since Young Justice 2019 has ended according to Tim Drake Robin a six months passed at least because that is the length of time Megfitz stated Timbern has been dating and Kon was back in continuity before they got together.

Thus the youngest he can possibly be using comic time and extrapolation is 18 but he's likely closer to 19.

Ideally, he should be in his 20s now but I don't think DC will let that happen.

We're really not sure and comics don't often like giving solid numbers and one time in one comic doesn't always add up to another comic either so we don't know.

A fair age for him considering everything that we've seen is he is at least 18, and a senior in high school.
