In "Book One: The Iron Horse" from Moebius #8 (1991), Lt. Blueberry is tasked with brokering peace between the Sioux and Cheyenne to clear the way for a railroad’s expansion—only to find himself caught in a web of sabotage and violence. As he survives a brutal buffalo stampede, a deadly bar fight, and a fiery ambush, he realizes the real enemy isn’t just the tribes, but a ruthless faction of railroaders using "Steelfingers" to incite war. With the treaty in ruins and his allies in danger, Blueberry must outrun destruction and track down the men behind the chaos—on a train racing toward a burning bridge and a reckoning yet to come.
In "Book Two: Steelfingers" from Moebius #8 (1991), Blueberry finds himself caught between rival rail ambitions and a dangerous alliance as the Union Pacific’s progress is threatened by the cunning Steelfingers. With the town surrounded by restless Sioux and a $200K payroll in peril, Blueberry must outwit betrayal and fire on a desperate train run—where survival means more than just escape.
In "Book Three: The Trail of the Sioux," Blueberry finds himself trapped between enemies as he tries to protect the soldiers' $200K payroll from Steelfingers and a band of Indians. With help from Jimmy and Red, he sets a trap using a forged telegram, but betrayal and ambush follow when Steelfingers steals the money after Blueberry’s escape. Though falsely accused and facing a lynching, the tide turns when the Indians return the payroll—after killing Steelfingers for his betrayal. But just as hope rises, General Allister arrives with orders to wipe out the very people who just saved the day.
In "Book Four: General Golden Mane," Blueberry, branded a traitor and hunted by his own commander, must navigate brutal winter conditions and deadly crossfire as General Allister's reckless campaign plunges the army into Indian territory. With Red and Jimmy at his side, Blueberry fights not just the enemy, but the mounting odds and a superior who sees him as the ultimate threat. The cold, the snow, and the betrayal all converge as a desperate message becomes the only hope for survival.
