About
Samus Aran As A Hamster, more commonly known as Hamus, is a fan art trend in which artists draw Metroid protagonist Samus Aran as a hamster. The trend started on Twitter / X in late June 2024. It is comparable to the March 2023 Moushley art trend, which had artists draw Ashley Graham from Resident Evil 4 Remake as a mouse.
Origin
On June 27th, 2024, X[1] artist @CrisppyBoat posted a piece of art depicting Samus Aran in her Zero Suit as a hamster, captioned, "Metroid but Samus is a hamster and is named Hamus and that's the only difference." The post gained over 10,000 likes and 2,100 reposts in one week (shown below).
