YMMV / Blueberry

• Complete Monster:
  • Issues #3-5:
    • Pedro Luis Armendariz is the corrupt governor of Sonora, Mexico. Plotting to seize control of the entire nation, Armendariz is the secret supplier of Lone Eagle. Stockpiling weapons and giving them to the Natives to foster a bloody and genocidal war, Armendariz opts to keep his hands clean and direct Lone Eagle to wipe out all the Americans he can, including slaughtering them out of Texas while helping Armendariz launch a coup and take over Mexico.
    • Lone Eagle is an Apache war chief who loves nothing as much as war for its own sake. In cooperation with the wicked Pedro Armendariz, Lone Eagle repeatedly sabotages peace efforts from both sides in a war between the Whites and the Natives, hiding among the US Cavalry as a scout named Quanah One-Eye. "Quanah" tortures and kills anyone who finds out his real plans, nearly having Blueberry's entire caravan slaughtered by an Apache ambush. When a lieutenant carrying a message for the President that will guarantee an end to the war tells Lone Eagle he could save hundreds of Native lives, Lone Eagle destroys his message and laughs that he's in no rush to end the bloodshed. Lone Eagle later spitefully scalps one of Blueberry's closest allies, Crowe, earning him a hatred rarely evoked from any other foe Blueberry fought then or since.
  • Issues #7-9: Jethro "Steelfingers" Diamond is a corrupt agent working for railroad barons to sabotage their rivals. In truth out for himself, Steelfingers orchestrates an attack on the local Sioux to frame Blueberry while leaving men behind to be framed and scalped. Rallying the Sioux, Steelfingers plots to use them to kill everyone aboard a train so he can rob it while ensuring only the Sioux are blamed and a war begins between them and the local Whites. Murdering his entire gang as not to share any profit, Steelfingers attempts to flee and leave Chief Sitting Bull and his men to be wiped out.
  • Issues #9-10 & 22: General "Golden Mane" Allister starts out as an insufferably smug General Failure who wages a war of extermination against the Native population for the sake of his own glory. A living cocktail of idiocy, racism, and sheer unchecked ego, Allister throws his own men against hordes of Native warriors in battles that kill his own as much as the enemy, all while he hounds at them to target women, children, and the elderly. Even after Blueberry saves his life, Allister repays him by setting him up to die with a regiment full of men that Allister has deemed expendable. Allister pops up years later no better than he was before, now the mastermind behind a plot to assassinate President Ulysses S. Grant - as well as a train full of dozens of other people as collateral - as part of an insane plan to dupe the American people into making him President Evil in the subsequent chaos.
• Moral Event Horizon: Several of the villains, also get their own fair bit to cross this:
  • Bascom when ordering the eldest captive chief to be hanged, just to warn the natives.
  • For Lone Eagle, it is possibly when murdering two soldiers and compromising the convoy, possibly when torturing Craig, but definitely when brutally murdering and scalping Lieutenant Crowe, whom Cochise had given a free pass, just to wreck the incipient truce.
  • Steelfingers, when assassinating several Sioux warriors, and thereby finally ensuring that there will be war.
  • General Allister, when abandoning the wounded, defenseless soldiers commanded by Blueberry to be slaughtered by the Arapaho.
  • Luckner leaving McClure to a slow death in the desert qualifies.
  • Finlay, when he withheld from his men the pardon they had gotten so he could continue his private feud against the Union,denying them them the opportunity to go back to their homes and families.
  • Vigo, when ensuring Blueberry is imprisoned for life for a crime he did not commit.
  • Eggskull, shooting down Chini in cold blood.
• Nightmare Fuel: The Ayahuasca Visions in the movie
