Searchlights slash through the deep blue night sky, intensifying the sense of scale and catastrophe. The title treatment is especially strong: the white katakana \u003cstrong data-start=\"1440\" data-end=\"1458\"\u003e「ジャイアント・スパイダー」\u003c\/strong\u003e sits above the huge yellow kanji \u003cstrong data-start=\"1492\" data-end=\"1501\"\u003e「大襲来」\u003c\/strong\u003e, anchoring the lower section with bold graphic force.
