After returning to Galactica with their stolen Meclon Raiders, Boomer pilots a Viper against the Meclon forces. His Viper becomes damaged during the engagement after saving Sheba from a pursuing Meclon, but survives the engagement due to the intervention of the Seraphs (Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 3 #4 & #5).
