Apparently, this is going to take place 100 years after the end of the NJO, and from what I've heard, the story revolves around Ben Skywalker's grandson, Cade.

Here's the Dark Horse discussion:

Since we just got the KOTOR series and Purge, both of which exceeded my expectations, I have high hopes for this.

DARK HORSE ANNOUNCES STAR WARS: LEGACY

Dark Horse has revealed details of the next chapter in their Star Wars plans post-Episode III. According to a post on the Dark Horse message boards by Vice President of Publishing Randy Stradley and the images he posted along with it, Star Wars: Legacy will be set “100 Year Beyond Everything You Know About Star Wars”

"There have been lots of wild theories bandied about regarding the ‘secret’ project that John Ostrander and Jan Duursema (and Dan Parsons and Brad Anderson) have been cooking up,” posted Stradley. “Rumors have ranged from a new series set in the immediate aftermath of Revenge of the Sith to the miniseries focusing on Quermian society and just what those long-necked aliens are doing with that shorter second set of arms under their robes all the time. (Okay, I admit I started that second rumor. Just now.)

"Well, it's time for all of the rumors to end and for all of the wild, unsupported speculation to begin. Below is a peek at what's coming your direction this summer. You'll be reading about it shortly in Diamond Previews, and by tomorrow on many of the fan and retailer websites. But, for once, we wanted to be the first to announce one of our own projects (it seems fair, right?). So, without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, I give you Star Wars Legacy.

"Legacy #0 (25¢, shipping in May) will serve as a primer of sorts for the characters and settings in the Legacy ongoing series (which begins the following month). Rather than an actual comics story, #0 will be your handbook for a wider, wilder new galaxy.

"Note that in all likelihood, the actual interior pages of #0 will be typeset in a more traditional book-style typeface.”

Writer John Ostrander later added these comments:

”The setting is roughly 100 years after the upcoming Legacy of the Force books.

"We were thinking of calling him the Dread Pirate Rav but there is a sort of grin ad a nod in that direction. OTOH, I pomise you -- Rav is NOTHING like ANY of the characters in PRINCESS BRIDE. And pirates in space remain a problem.

"Cade couldn't be Ben's son; the timing doesn't work. He could be the GRANDSON. Assuming that he's Ben's offspring at all.

"That's all for now.

"Believe me -- we haven't even scratched the surface yet.”

Look for more information here at Newsarama when it becomes available…
