Caston is the co-creator and writer of the comic MegaTokyo. MegaTokyo was one of the largest and most successful early webcomics to transition from online to print, the success of it and other early properties such as Penny Arcade and PvP went on to influence an entire generation of webcomic creators. He has since parted ways with his partner, Fred Gallagher and relinquished control of Megatokyo. He is credited for the first two published volumes of Megatokyo.
Caston's connections to software designers and writers at Bioware landed his alter ego cameos in two of their games. In Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.
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 accusing Fred Gallagher of stealing Megatokyo away from Caston. Due to the fan speculation that ensued, Gallagher was forced to explain the reason for the split, citing creative differences and insisting that the breakup was amicable.
