Don't Forget To Validate Your Parking is a webcomic written and illustrated by American screenwriter, film producer, and comic book creator Mike Le. The webcomic was officially launched on December 11, 2007, during the 2007-2008 Writers Guild of America strike.[1] Published roughly once a week, the webcomic is loosely based on the author's experiences working in Hollywood. Its readership grew significantly when blogger Cory Doctorow posted a link to the webcomic on Boing Boing.[2]

The only visible character in Mike Le's webcomic is an illustrated version of Le himself, sitting behind his laptop and on the phone. All supporting characters are expressed through dialogue, usually as a voice on the phone.
