The famous Keep On Truckin' big footed gang first appeared in Robert Crumb's Zap Comix No.1 issued in 1968, it was a single page comic. Also known as the Do Dah Men, they were inspired by a visual riff of the Blind Boy Fuller song "Truckin' My Blues Away" and later referenced in the Grateful Dead song "Truckin" from the 1970's album American Beauty.
They went on to inspire a generation to keep on keepin' on!
