Following is the answer which was previously posted:

"What most people would expectantly consider to be a great achievement can turn out to be quite useless even dangerous.

In the story 'The Invisible Man' we are taken through the long and difficult process that it took to create the Invisible Man only to find that once we had him the only thing that we could think of having him do was be an assassin. Frustrated he eventually went rogue and had to be hunted down and killed."

Following is my answer:

That is not the story of HG Wells' The Invisible Man. That is the story of the movie. One of the most apparent themes of The Invisible Man is society's naivety and its rejection of the unfamiliar and unknown. The invisible man in the story is feared and rejected. This surely plays a role in his turning mad, and it is a recurring theme in the story.

The main theme of H.G. Wells' "The Invisible Man" is the consequences of unchecked power and the isolation that can result from obsession and disregard for others. It also explores themes of identity, morality, and the impact of scientific experimentation on society.

# Obsessions can lead to your destruction - same as in Frankenstein # What good is being invisible? In the book the only conclusion was to become an assassin - not the best of career choices.

a nice pun, I assume you mean Invisiblle Man- there was some humor in the film version where one had the classic grammatical error- I saw a pair of pants walking down the street yesterday- For Real! Unfortunately the Power went to the Invisible Man"s head, and he used it for crime- would have been better if he was a Good Guy like invisible Kid in Legion of Super-Heroes.
