Inspired by the magnificent features of two-dimensional (2D) materials which aroused much of the interest in recent materials science research, we study PT-symmetric 2D Weyl semimetal (WSM) to reveal the broadband and wide-angle invisible configurations in a PT-symmetric optical slab system. Desired unidirectional reflectionlessness and invisibility phenomena is obtained by the optimal control of system parameters. We unravel the mystery of broadband and wide-angle invisibility in regular slab materials with finite refractive indices by means of the plenary expressions. We show that materials whose refractive indices relatively small (usually around $\eta =1$) give rise to quite a lot broadband and wide-angle (almost all incidence angles) invisible configurations. This is not observed with any 2D material other than 2D WSMs. Our findings suggest a concrete expedience to experimental realizations in this direction.
