Need help idenifying a comic book hero. I was born in 1951, but
I can't pinpoint exactly when these comics were read by me, but here goes. The hero is a guy who dresses in a midnight blue uniform and cap, and says "sacre bleu" a lot! We have been trying to identify this guy here in my office for a while now. If I can identify him, I'll be a bit of a heroine myself, so any help is appreciated!

5. Thanks, petersond - I think you hit on the correct one with Andre -
because he didn't wear a mask or a regular suit. I didn't know that there were other Blackhawks for some reason, maybe I just happened to read some that focused on Andre! Thanks for looking it up for me!
Now if I could only figure out exactly what sacre bleu means!
