* ''{{Manga/Alabaster}}'': The plot develops in a way designed to create a rather clever StealthPun. It's a story about a black man struggling against racism in America who then becomes a twisted, violent monster after using an invisibility device made by a mad scientist. In other words, it starts out as ''Literature/InvisibleMan'' and turns into '''[[Creator/HGWells The]]''' ''[[Literature/TheInvisibleMan Invisible Man]]''.
[[AC:Film]]
* ''Film/TheEqualizer'' has a character driven thematic ShoutOut to the novel. Robert is African-American, and the book deals with black identity. However, the title is obviously more of a reference to the fact that Robert is an unknown quantity to the evil-doers in the world, and thus "invisible" to them.
* ''Film/StandByMe'': Gordy protests that after reading Ralph Ellison's ''Literature/InvisibleMan'', he feels down.
[[AC:Video Games]]
* ''VideoGame/BioShockInfinite'': Daisy, at one point, says the only advantage colored children get is that they are "invisible" - ignored by society. This is the definition used in ''Literature/InvisibleMan'' - a minority completely ignored by society.
