Lieutenant Blueberry #1

"Book One: The Iron Horse" kicks off a gripping Western adventure with Lieutenant Blueberry, sent to broker peace between the Sioux and Cheyenne so a railroad can cross their land. As rival rail barons unleash a ruthless agent known as "Steelfingers" to incite violence, Blueberry endures a brutal gauntlet of ambushes, stampedes, and fire—each test pushing him to the edge. With negotiations in ruins and a burning bridge behind him, he’s left with one mission: face down the man who’s turned the frontier into a battlefield. Written by Jean-Michel Charlier, Jean-Marc Lofficier, and Randy Lofficier, and illustrated with bold, immersive art by Jean Giraud—whose distinctive style defines the entire issue—this is a classic tale of duty, betrayal, and survival. The cover, also by Giraud, captures the tension of the moment with striking precision.
