True about both Serkis and Oswalt, but it's not the MCU. Plus, I said specific comic universe, not movie universe...

I'm likewise fairly sure Tim Curry was never Tarzan (the mind boggles!). That said, I did state that the link was actorS, not an actor.

I think Adrienne Barbeau was in the first Avengers movie as one of the security council members.
But since it's not that I'll guess DC Comics, again based upon Barbeau (who appeared in the first Swamp Thing film).

You are right about the comic company. The connection goes deeper than just that though, but it should hopefully set you in the right direction.

Queen Victoria indeed.
Harry Harrison wrote Queen Victoria's Revenge (which, despite the title, is not Queen Victoria going on a Death Wish-like murder spree). Though she doesn't actually appear in the novel (iirc), her influence is felt, as you might have guessed from the title.
A. E. Moorat wrote Queen Victoria: Demon Hunter. Title says it all, really.
Kim Newman wrote Anno Dracula, set in an alternate timeline where Dracula took Queen Victoria as his bride and turned Britain into a vampire nation. Victoria herself turns up late in the story.

Exactly.
Haruo Nakajima was the original man in the Godzilla suit, and played the role for 12 movies. He was also Mothra, Rodan, Baragon and King Kong in other movies!
Kenpachiro Satsuma, who had played other monsters in the Godzillaverse in earlier movies, took over as the Big G in Godzilla (1984) and stayed in the role for 8 movies of the Heisei era, ending his run in 1995.
Stuntman T.J. Storm was Godzilla for 2014's Godzilla and then for Godzilla: King of the Monsters. Unlike his predecessors, he didn't wear the suit, as Godzilla was CGI, but he did perform the movements using motion capture (so if we can credit Andy Serkis for LoTR, Planet of the Apes and King Kong, we can count Storm as Godzilla).
Toru Kawai was Godzilla twice, for the movie Terror of Mechagozilla, and for Godzilla's TV appearance as on the series Zone Fighter.

Close enough - they are literally all the same family.
Stellan Skarsgard was Vladimir Harkonnen in the recent Dune adaptation, Bootstrap Bill Turner in Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and 3, and Erik Selvig in Thor and Avengers.
Stellan's son Alexander was Tarzan in Legend of Tarzan, Prince Amleth in The Northman, and Eric Northman in True Blood.
Stellan's son Gustaf was detective Kurt Wallander in Pyramiden (though I honestly didn't expect that would be one most people would know), King Canute in two movies, and a series regular as Floki in Vikings.
Stellan's son Bill was Pennywise in the two recent It movies, Zeitgeist in Deadpool 2 and Kro in The Eternals. He's due to play both Eric Draven in a remake of The Crow and Count Orlok in a remake of Nosferatu, so he's busy racking up genre roles.

I'll allow it. More strictly, it was that they were all playing versions of the same character, Matt Cable.
Adrienne Barbeau didn't play Abby, but Alice Cable, a gender-swapped Matt Cable mixed with Abby, in the Swamp Thing movie. Abby herself turned up in the sequel movie.
Henderson Wade played Matt Cable in the 2019 Swamp Thing series.
Patton Oswalt voiced Matthew the Raven in the 2022 Sandman TV series, and as you state, Matthew the Raven is Matt Cable, his spirit turned into a dream raven after he died.
And Andy Serkis played Matthew the Raven in the Audible Sandman adaptations.

The settings for shared world anthologies, fictional series written by multiple authors with the same locations and overlapping characters:
Sanctuary is the city where Thieves' World takes place; primarily edited by Robert Aspirin, and the one that got adapted into both graphic novels by Starblaze and an RPG setting by Chaosium.
Hell is the setting for the Damned Saga, which began with Heroes in Hell, primarily edited by Janet Morris. Literally set in Hell, it features a cast from across history, as virtually every famous person ever finds themselves in the underworld after their deaths.
The planet Merovin is the setting for Merovinan Nights, primarily edited by C.J. Cherryh. A lost colony world that has forgotten its origins and devolved into a low-tech society.
The planet Haven is the setting for War World, primarily edited by Jerry Pournelle. The series title pretty much explains the premise.
The fantasy city of Liavek is the setting for the Liavek series, edited by Will Shetterley and Emma Bull. As noted above, Alan Moore was one of the authors who contributed a story to the series, a tale he later adapted into a stand-alone graphic novel.
