So at first you mention age, but then use that to indicate power...? Sound logic. Also, you're missing out the God sized elephant in the room. The Archangels didn't battle The Darkness on their own.

Now, it's obvious the Archangels are more powerful, I don't think anyone would dispute that. When it comes to fighting a nigh-omnipotent entity like The Darkness, Archangels would be the best choice to have on your team. That however does not mean Archangels are older than Leviathans. Death stated that God created the Leviathans long before ANGEL and Man. Until specifically stated otherwise, that includes Archangels.
