Griffin, also known as the Invisible Man, is a fictional character who first appeared as the protagonist of H. G. Wells' 1897 science fiction novel The Invisible Man. In the original work, Griffin is a scientist whose research in optics and experiments into changing the human body's refractive index to that of air results in him becoming invisible. After becoming invisible, he wraps his head in bandages and dons a pair of goggles or glasses in order to enable others to see him. Unable to reverse the invisibility process, he descends into insanity and becomes a criminal.

  • Гриффин (англ. Griffin) — вымышленный персонаж, герой романа «Человек-невидимка», впервые опубликованного в 1897, созданный Гербертом Уэллсом. Гриффин — молодой учёный, открывший общий закон пигментов и преломления света, формулу, содержащую четыре измерения. Сделав случайно открытие в области физиологии, что гемоглобин можно обесцветить, сохранив все его свойства, он думает, что, будучи человеком, лишенным пигментации, сможет стать невидимым и обрести независимость, могущество и свободу, превратившись из нищего демонстратора опытов в провинциальном колледже, терпящем унижения от богатых студентов и бездарного профессора, желающего присвоить себе его труд, в наводящего ужас всемогущего Невидимого.
