"The Degaton Bomb?" Aha! That explains it. Degaton has ripped off a "time" bomb from Tomorrow Man. And everyone concerned has to find it before it explodes...
...and irreparably damages all of accepted history.
Great background research, Ross! :-)
Nice job mixing the two groups of heroes on this cover. It probably would've been easy to just paste the collections side-by-side or one over the other, but this looks pretty close to how it would probably look if this was an actual cover. And that's with art from (apparently) at least five different artists. (Crystal looks an awful lot like Jack Kirby's distinctive style; do you have a note on who did her?)
Of course, whenever time travel comes up, I'm one of the small chorus of voices wanting to see Kang the Conqueror teaming up with the Time Trapper. But seeing this group makes me wonder if someone like Immortus could bring together a team of "lost in time" heroes: Jonah Hex (from his future-setting adventures), Samurai Jack, Captain Caveman... maybe even Booster Gold and Cable.
As to Inhumans, while I'd be interested in checking that series out (yes, I know it was bad, but I'm still interested in going through it at least once), I'm also very interested in seeing how that matter is handled in the MCU. Inhumans have also been a part of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (in the persons of Quake and Yo-Yo, among others), and I'm on the fence as far as trying to predict whether Kevin Feige will be drawing that show's events into the main MCU. I very much hope that he does; I'd be delighted to see Chloe Bennet show up on Ms. Marvel.
Speaking of Ms. Marvel, Ross, are there any plans for any further adventures of the Expansion Team? I'd love to see her fully integrated into that group at least once.
And taking from my mention of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., does anyone know if Fitz-Simmons have appeared in comic form? (Individually, yes, I've found that much out; I mean, as a team/couple.) I think it'd be interesting to see them interacting with Oracle, maybe providing expertise and/or other support for her work.
Hmm, perhaps in the universe of STF, Degaton and Kang (in his various versions) and the Time Trapper are all the same villain?
Crystal is by John Buscema. I like the Expansion Team so I will try to revisit them one of these days.

Well, in DC's own continuity (at least pre-Flashpoint) the 'Time Trapper' role had been sequentially (as much as that term makes sense in his context) by a number of different characters anyway... so why not this?
Hmm. Crystal is Buscema. So are all the rest of the Inhumans except Medusa, who is Byrne. Firestar by Bagley. All the All-Stars by Ordway. Degaton by Buckler. Am I close?
All stars by Buckler/Ordway, Degaton by Ordway, Firebrand by Buckler/DeCarlo, Medusa By Byrne, Inhumans by Buscema, Firestar by Bagley
I must say, Mr. Buscema really caught Mr. Kirby's vision and style with not just Crystal, but Karnak, Gorgon, and Black Bolt as well.
@Kid Charlemagne: What about Chronos?
Great 4-parter. Such a quirky idea that you really brought to life.
Chronos didn't have the time to join this group.
This cover epitomizes what summer annuals used to be. Huge, fun, splashy.
Fantastic job.
