I know people have been posting this one for a while pointing out a Bull with Saturn's scar (on opposite side though) going against STHs as an Egghead thing.
But at a closer glance there's even more here.
@Julius completely opened my eyes to the banners for one of: Summoning Circle Bull(Saturn) surrounded by speed lightning bolts (Kizaru) vs Monkey (Luffy) surrounded by blue flames(Sanji) as a huge wtf how did we miss this. Thanks for that.
But even more staring at it:
Tattoos: The Saturn Bull also has tattoos on his arm and neck of black shadowy tendrils, like the powers he's showing using to regenerate and his black flames.
Shirt Numbers:
While it's just birthdays, Saturn is also sporting "66" a number that pops up quite frequently everywhere in the story (especially around Sanji, Nami and Vivi/Nefertari's), but also with Germa and Science. Being on Saturn this could indicate either Saturn being connected to Germa somehow, or as the more popular theory goes with the cover stories. Neo Mads arriving.
Franky's shirt is VERY interesting though as it has a triple meaning. His birthday, Battle Franky 39 (he's on 38 right now) and 39 also in Goroawase meaning San Kyu/Thank You, possibly an upgrade as a thank you to Kuma or Vegapunk or some other sacrifice? The fact it's 39 amongst everything else is a cool symbolism.
The thing is, you could go more into this though as I started looking. I mean, it's just a color spread, it means nothing, right? I think Oda has the storyline hidden throughout some of them, IN ORDER. If you look at the list of color spreads before and after this one, but strike out the random anniversary ones, so just the ones not given a meaning already, you get two BEAR/KUMA color spreads before this one, just like we got Kuma's flashback before the current scenes.
AND after this color spread, striking out the anniversary ones, we get the Mugiwara 56 Raid Suit STH color spread. So more thought of Neo Mads.
I haven't tried to piece the rest of the CSs after, as it'll take a while. But the things matching to the current story is very interesting.
What do you guys think?
Note: For anyone that knows Football, if there's any hint in their positions please let me know. I hate sports so I don't know that and Google didn't help with looking up positions.
