Deeply memorable for the sequence during which eldritch magic unravels the minds of the protagonists, rendering the heart of their journey into the unknown as a series of discontinuous snapshots.

As recurringly the case with Moore, an attempt to explore the boundaries what comics as a medium are capable of.
Reminds me of the discontinuous jump cuts used to great effect (albeit with much reduced scope) in the videogame "Thirty flights of loving".
