"The Last Card" and "The End of the Trail" are translations of Blueberry #21-22: La Dernière carte and Le Bout de la piste.
Chihuahua, Mexico, 1872. Blueberry seeks General Vigo, who can clear his name of stealing the Confederate gold. Blueberry, Red, and Jimmy are arrested because Vigo is now Governor. They'll be shot. But now that President Juarez is dead, Vigo is to be shot instead! Blueberry enlists El Tigre's gang to help Vigo escape. They ride to a waterfall and cave behind, leaving the double crossing El Tigre in a lurch. Blueberry uncovers Vigo's stash and a receipt for the Confederate gold signed by Juarez himself!
Blueberry needs to clear his name and expose the conspirators out to assassinate President Grant. He gives General Dodge the receipt. In Alabama, he lures out Warden Kelly and learns of Delta Ranch in the Rockies. At the ranch, he's captured by Angel Face but Red and Jimmy break him free. The conspirators plan to blow up the tunnel as Grant's train passes. Blueberry bursts in and Grant is convinced when the tunnel blows. The conspirators are exposed. Blueberry is exonerated and rich.
Next up - he's going to marry Chihuahua Pearl!
