Since the dawn of time, mankind has conceived of the fantastic concept of invisibility, the magical idea of someone who exists but who human eyes are unable to see. In 1897, author H.G. Wells, for the first time, grounded the fantasy and magic in science, writing a story of a lone, hardworking chemist cursed with scientific hubris who discovered the secret of invisibility. Join Gary Lutz as he unwraps the bandages and shines a light on H.G. Wells’s story, its origins, and its incarnations in other media.
