Rodney Caston was the co-creator and original writer of the webcomic Megatokyo. He has since parted ways with his partner, Fred Gallagher and relinquished control of Megatokyo. He is credited for only the first published volume of Megatokyo.

Notable Facts

Caston owned the original domain name of Megatokyo and his alter ego, Largo, was the insane gaming fanatic while Fred Gallagher's alter ego, Piro, played the straight man. Caston quietly parted with Fred Gallagher from Megatokyo in mid-2002 and began to work on his own online comic, Überclocked. The legal details of the breakup are private and not much was said about it at the time. In early 2005, a controversy erupted after Scott Kurtz of PvP wrote a forum post that congratulated Caston on his impending fatherhood as well as accused Fred Gallagher of stealing Megatokyo away from Caston. Due to the fan speculation that ensued, Gallagher was forced to explain the reason for the breakup, citing creative differences [1] and insisted that the breakup and theft was amiable. Caston then gave his version of the events [2].

Caston attended Otakon from 2001 to 2002. When Caston was still working on Megatokyo, he infamously used the main page to propose to his then-girlfriend, Ruby. They subsequently married and are now expecting a baby.
