'''Boxey''' is the son of {{alt|Serina}} who survives the [[Cylon Holocaust]]. 

During his early years in {{alt|the Fleet|TOS}}, Boxey resides aboard ''{{alt|Galactica|TOS}}'' with his step-father, {{alt|Apollo|TOS}}, following the death of his mother. This leaves Boxey without any known surviving blood relations, as is the case with numerous survivors throughout the fugitive fleet.

En route to {{alt|Earth|TOS}}, Boxey becomes one of the many denizens of the Fleet to share in the dream of {{alt|Earth|TOS}}, projected by [[delta-class telepath]] [[Xam]] as they traverse an unnamed [[storm zone]]. This concerns both Apollo and Boxey's step-aunt, {{alt|Athena|TOS}} ({{comics|vol2|8}}&mdash;{{comics|vol2|9|short=y}}).

After the events of [[Adama's Gambit]], Boxey resumes attempting to find a place to play aboard ''Galactica'', often being shooed from the engine room by Colonel {{alt|Tigh|TOS-DE}} and bouncing around to various parts of the active battlestar, including the {{alt|launch bay}}. Following {{alt|Boomer|TOS}} from the launch bay, he happens upon a funeral ceremony to commemorate the pilots lost, and realizes the sacrifice many {{alt|Warriors}} make to protect them. Commander {{alt|Adama|TOS}} comes across the distraught boy and consoles him, escorting him to [[core command]] and promising him that Boxey will someday grow up to see Earth ({{comics|vol2|12}}).

Later, as they transit a [[black hole]], Boxey is briefly seen cavorting about ''Galactica'' with his trusted robotic [[daggit]], {{alt|Muffit}} ({{comics|vol3|1}} & {{comics|vol3|5|short=y}}).

Entering his teens, Boxey is scared by the loss of Apollo following the [[Encounter of the Super Basestar]], after [[Yahren|yahrens]] of non-existent contact with their relentless Cylon pursuers ({{comics|doa|2}}).

Following [[Rescue of Apollo|Apollo's unsanctioned rescue]], Boxey discusses enlisting as a Colonial Warrior to Apollo, himself grappling with being forced into an advisory support role given a brain injury that prevents Apollo's active front-line defense of the Fleet. Apollo takes Boxey's gumption at becoming the warrior in an offensive way, lashing out at his step-son ({{comics|doa|5}}).

The Cylons ambush the Fleet [[Secton|sectons]] into Apollo's return, leaving him little choice but to step back into a Viper cockpit, and give his life to destroy the dreaded Cylon super basestar. This leaves Boxey without a father figure, relying more on his adopted family, his [[Adama (TOS-DE alternate)|grandfather]] and [[Athena (TOS-DE alternate)|aunt]], and ''Galactica''<nowiki/>'s surviving crew ({{comics|doa|6}}).{{tabnav|Characters|comics=vol2|comics2=vol3}}
