“ I can merely work on finely, clear days. If I work in the rain, the water can be seen on my point and shoulders. In a daze, you can see me — like a ripple. In smoky cities, the soot settles on me until you can see a benighted outline. You must always be near at hand to wipe off my feet. even soil between my fingernails would give me away. “

• Griffin’s invisibility in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was pretty easy to defeat. Mina Murray famously revealed him at the girls’ school in Edmonton by throwing a bucket of whitewash onto him. Also, Mr. Hyde had some kind of “thermal imaging” with which he could see Griffin (Kevin O’Neill’s art mimics a thermal camera). This property of Hyde’s proves to be Griffin’s undoing in the second volume.
• Wonder Woman has a combination of Super Senses and low-level Psychic Powers that have been allowing her to see the invisible since the Golden Age. She can see specters that are messing with reality from other planes and can fight anyone trying to attack her regardless of their visibility due to her much better senses of hearing than an average human. This came in handy when she was temporarily blinded in Wonder Woman (1987) as well, since she could still fight better than most of the Justice League.
• Mark Waid’s run of the Fantastic Four had Reed explain that Sue can still see what she makes invisible because her eyes can perceive variations in non-visible cosmic wavelengths that constantly bathe everything, just without any color perception.

• Call of Cthulhu:
  • In The Fungi from Yuggoth, wearing a pair of magical spectacles allows the wearer to see other planes of existence and the creatures that live there, which are invisible to normal sight.
  • In Shadows of Yog-Sothoth, the invisible monsters known as spectral hunters can only be seen if someone looks through one of the special camera lenses created by Erich von Varnstein using Cthulhu Mythos knowledge. The lenses do not conform with the established principles of optics.
  • When the Powder of Ibn Ghazi is sprinkled on invisible monsters, it makes them visible.
• Dungeons & Dragons has several examples.
  • Early articles advise spreading dust or flour on the floor (to see footprints) or throwing flour, dust or water in the air (so it coats the opponent and reveals an outline).
  • Certain spells can be used this way, such as true seeing and true sight. Some editions have a spell with exactly this purpose, called see invisibility.
  • Dust of Appearance makes anything invisible it’s sprinkled on become visible for everyone. Reveal invisible (Al-Quadim) and invisibility purge (D&D3) spells do the same.
  • Glitterdust doesn’t remove invisibility as such, but anything corporeal dusted with sparkles becomes very noticeable. The spell Faerie Fire works in the same way, causing affected targets to glow even if invisible.
  • Corpse candle creates an incorporeal hand carrying a lit candle whose light reveal hidden, invisible or ethereal creatures. Its illustration in the Spell Compendium is a textbook Matchlight Danger Revelation.
  • Ethereal dragons on the Material Plane can see creatures on the Ethereal, which are normally invisible to beings on the Material.
  • In 5th Edition, a crystal dragon can cause gleaming starlight to radiate from a point in the lair. Creatures illuminated by the light cannot become invisible.
• Exalted: The first Step of the Dragon Kings’ Celestial Air Path, Piercing the Celestial Veil, allows them to see and hear immaterial beings as though they were material.
• Pathfinder has numerous ways to get around invisible beings. Any sort of extra sense, such as tremorsense or blindvision, make invisibility a moot point to any creature that has them or any character that’s temporarily acquired them through a spell or magic item, as does true seeing and see invisibility. For those who want to remove the invisibility altogether rather than simply allow themselves to see it, dispel magic and invisibility purge both work, as do antimagic field and mage’s disjunction for those with no restraint. But for those who enjoy the classics, the low-level spells glitterdust and faerie fire cover the invisible creature (and everything else nearby) in shiny gold dust or technicolor flames that makes them easy to see.
• Star Fleet Battles: It’s possible to see cloaked Romulan ships with the “flash cube” effect (detonating a transporter bomb or mine).
• Warhammer: The Witchsight of the Necrarchs allows them to see spirits and the winds of magic as if they part of the physical world. In exchange, however, the physical world of the living becomes a blurred and insubstantial thing to their eyes.
• Warhammer 40,000: There are quite a few sources of invisibility, as well as ways to get around them. In game terms, as long as you can draw an unobstructed line from attacker to defender you can still declare the attack, you just suffer an accuracy penalty (Invisibility spell, Deathleaper’s special camouflage) or the target gets a “cover save” (anything else). Flamethrowers ignore the “cover save” variant, and the Tau faction’s laser-guidance “Markerlight” system can be used to light up less-than-visible foes. In the novel Fire Caste, the Tau’s advanced invisible “Stealth Suits” are rendered as the distortion effect to bionic eyes.
