|  | Invisible Man by Anthony West, H. G. Wells, Joshua Hanft, Macdonald Daly, Rick Geary Griffin has learned how to make himself invisible by scientifically making the body transparent. Once he has discovered this, Griffin burns his room, takes to the countryside and proceeds to try and terrorize and overpower people. Unfortunately for him, they are not so terrified after all, and his visions of dominance crumble. He stops at an inn, tries to reverse the invisibility, but cannot. The townspeople erupt against him, and he tries to strike back, but a hobo has stolen his notes and his old friend Dr. Kemp--perceiving that Griffin does not wish to use his knowledge for the purposes of good--has laid a trap with the police.
