Le Peregrine is a fictional character in the Marvel Universe. Alain Racine is a superhero from France, who took his name after the French word for "the falcon".
Peregrine was first seen in the Grandmaster's Contest of Champions against Death for the life of the Collector. He competed on the Grandmaster's side, in the illustrious company of other heroes such as Captain America, Captain Britain, Wolverine, Daredevil, She-Hulk, and the Thing. He was pitted against another winged opponent, the Angel, but the Angel's greater experience gave him the edge to defeat Le Peregrine.
Later, back on Earth, Peregrine encountered Silver Sable, who invited him to become her operative in France. He assisted the archer Hawkeye in destroying a nuclear warhead generator stolen by the Red Skull, and freeing the Sandman--another of Silver Sable's operatives--in the process.
