The tendency when enjoying a story to "read" or "hear" a character's voice depending on the observer's preference. More frequent when a character does not or did not officially have a voice (such as a book), especially until some much later adaptation.
Movies are frequently cited/accused as creating the assumed voice of a character even when there's no objective reason this should occur (e.g., it is simply the actor's normal voice or an actor doing their own interpretation). If the work is frequently adapted, this is usually based on the most popular actor portraying the role. Many writers do in fact "hear" and "see" their characters but generally don't feel the need to enforce this view on the audience except in Broad Strokes.
Interestingly, why one voice is locked into our minds may not be related to how good, official or genuine it is. It might be that the "official" or mainstream interpretation is seen as pretty terrible or disingenuous by the observer. Maybe the audience remembers an obscure adaptation which existed as the sole version until recently as a childhood memory, or maybe there was something merely memorable (or infamous) about said "voice".
Not to be mistaken with Brain Bleach. Also, has nothing to do with Mondegreen Gags or Ear Worms.

Try reading Watchmen without hearing Jackie Earle Haley as Rorschach, Patrick Wilson as Nite Owl, or Jeffrey Dean Morgan as the Comedian.
Speaking of Alan Moore, Hugo Weaving as V in V for Vendetta.

Disney Kingdoms:
Depending on personal preference and/or which version of Journey Into Imagination you are familiar with, it's easy to hear either Billy Barty or David Goelz's voice as Figment in both Figment and Figmemt 2 when reading his dialogue. If you are familiar with the original ride, it's easy to hear either Chuck McCann or Ron Schneider's voice when reading Dreamfinder's dialogue.
Some might picture hearing the official voice actors saying the comic's lines of the Haunted Mansion's characters in that Disney Kingdoms series such as Eleanor Audley as Madame Leota.

Noddy:
For a lot of people, late english actress Susan Sheridan will always be the definitive voice of Noddy, Tessie Bear, and the other female (and male) characters. So it's very easy to hear her voice for a majority of the character dialogue. To a lesser extent, Jimmy Hibbert (Big Ears, Mr. Plod, Master Tubby Bear, etc) who's also the narrator for Toyland Adventures. When Noddy In Toyland debuted in 2009, Noddy's new voice actress (Teresa Gallagher) actually took cues from Susan Sheridan because of how recognizable her performance was.
Older generations from the UK will usually picture Denis Bryer as the default voice of Noddy. Since she used to voice Noddy regularly in British commericals and audio adaptations (such as "Her Master's Voice") between 1955 till 1969.
Due to the franchise's massive popularity in France, a lot of french viewers will easily hear Brigitte Lecordie's performance as Noddy when reading the original books.

Thanks to the Viz animated adaptations in the early 1990s, it's hard to not hear Peter Cook as Roger Mellie the Man on the Telly, along with Harry Enfield as his Straight Man Tom. Or for that matter, Kathy Burke as one of the Fat Slags.

X-Men:
Fans tend to hear Jim Ward, Patrick Stewart, Cedric Smith or James McAvoy as Professor Xavier; Cal Dodd, Steve Blum or Hugh Jackman as Wolverine; Nolan North, the late Norm Spencer, James Marsden, the late Kirby Morrow, or Ray Chase as Cyclops; Alison Sealy-Smith or Susan Dalian as Storm; Liam O'Brien as Angel; Yuri Lowenthal or James Arnold Taylor as Iceman; Jennifer Hale, Famke Janssen, Catherine Disher or Venus Terzo as Jean Grey; Fred Tatasciore, George Buza, Kelsey Grammer, or Nicholas Hoult as Beast; Liam O'Brien or Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler; Phil LaMarr, Chris Potter, or Tony Daniels as Gambit; Lenore Zann, Megan Black, or Kieren Van Den Blink as Rogue; Danielle Judovits, Kath Soucie, Maggie Blue O'Hara, or Elliot Page as Kitty Pryde; Lawrence Bayne as Cable and Kari Wahlgren as Emma Frost among the other members whenever they are reading their lines from just about anywhere.
As for the enemies of the X-Men (particularly the members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and others), fans tend to hear Tom Kane, the late Tony Jay, Ian McKellen, or the late David Hemblen as Magneto; Kate Higgins as Scarlet Witch; Mark Hildreth or Richard Ian Cox as Quicksilver; A.J. Buckley or Noel Fisher as Toad; Nigel Bennett or Travis Willingham as Mastermind; Stephen Stanton or Michael Dobson as the Blob; Nolan North or Trevor Devall as Pyro; James Patrick Stuart or Christopher Grey as Avalanche; Jennifer Dale, Coleen Wheeler, Tamara Bernier, Rebecca Romijn, or Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique; and Chris Britton or Clancy Brown as Mister Sinister, among other villains.
The '90s animated incarnation of Apocalypse is by far the most popular incarnation of the character, with the late John Colicos portraying every line of dialogue with the right amount of ego, gravitas and elegance befitting him. While other actors, like David Kaye and Oscar Isaac, have played Apocalypse since the passing of Colicos, there simply is no other that has played him without being compared to his original voice actor.

Besides the fact that Mecha Sonic from Sonic 3 & Knuckles ended up becoming extremely popular thanks to Super Mario Bros. Z, in absense of the official voice, the use of Cooler's (Andrew Chandler) lines effectively became the character's de-facto voice, with most fan animations and Game Mods featuring Mecha Sonic often reusing Cooler's lines, or recording lines that follow such interpretation.

From The Hobbit, some of the Dwarf actors' regional accents stand out, like Ken Stott and Graham McTavish's Scottish accents as Balin and Dwalin and James Nesbitt's Irish accent as Bofur. Also, Sylvester McCoy's distintive Scottish brouge as Radagast the Brown and Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug.

James Bond:
Good luck reading one of the original novels and not imagining Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, or Daniel Craig as Bond. Especially Connery (for being the first Bond) or Dalton and Craig (for being grittier Bonds in the style of the novels) for some. In fact, Ian Fleming was so won over by Connery that he gave the character Scottish ancestry, which was made canon in the films.
Or, if you've listened to the very faithfully adapted BBC4 radio dramas, Toby Stephens.
The original M, Bernard Lee, is exactly what you'd imagine 007's boss would sound like.

Fans who were introduced to the franchise in the '80s and early '90s often associate Mario with Captain Lou Albano's rendition from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! and his imitators in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World. The precedent Albano set was so firmly entrenched in the public consciousness that Nintendo found it difficult to find English-speaking voice actors who didn't try to imitate him.

It's a credit to the Superlative Dubbing that a number of fans can't unhear the English voices for My Hero Academia. Heck, to put things into perspective, this fandub of Asui's side story uses accurate impressions of the dub voices of Tsuyu Asui (voiced by Monica Rial) and Izuku Midoriya (voiced by Justin Briner).
Kohei Horikoshi admitted in an interview that after the anime had aired for a while, it became impossible for him to not write Katsuki Bakugo without hearing Nobuhiko Okamoto.
A popularity/favoritism poll on Behind the Voice Actors' entry on Daiki Yamashita was won by a landslide by Izuku Midoriya.

The Flash:
For many fans, Michael Rosenbaum is both Barry Allen and Wally West. If not him, then there is Charlie Schlatter, Neal McDonough, Josh Keaton, or Taliesin Jaffe as Barry Allen and Jason Spisak as Wally West.
For Jay Garrick, John Wesley Shipp's take is also popular.
Jason Marsden's performance as Bart Allen is the most remembered.
When it comes to the Flash's Rogues, there's one definite constant: Mark Hamill is the Trickster.
For Gorilla Grodd, there's with the late Powers Boothe (Justice League), John DiMaggio (Batman: The Brave and the Bold), David Sobolov (Arrowverse), or Charles Halford (Injustice 2).
For Professor Zoom, there's C. Thomas Howell, Tom Cavanagh or Matt Letscher.
Newer fans will tend to hear Barry with the voice of Taliesin Jaffe (as detailed above), Jay with Travis Willingham, and Zoom/Thawne Liam O'Brien (Injustice 2).

Also coming from the DC Animated Universe, Clancy Brown's interpretation of Lex Luthor is considered to be the voice of the character. Mark Rolston (as heard in Young Justice (2010) and Injustice: Gods Among Us) is a close second. In terms of Live-Action, a lot of fans tend to hear either Michael Rosenbaum (Smallville) or Jon Cryer (Arrowverse).

Mr. Freeze's voice is most commonly associated with Michael Ansara, since that version of Freeze is perhaps the most popular incarnation of the character and became the basis on which other portrayals were founded; Maurice LaMarche is a close second.

Dragon Ball:
The Catalonian Dub has Marc Zanni as the official voice of Adult!Goku note He also voiced Male!Ramma, Shin-Shan's father and Roronoa Zoro, to the point that everytime he voiced any other character, he's is inmediately recognized by catalonians as "Goku's voice".
The Latin America Dub has Mario Castañeda regarded as the official voice of Adult!Goku in many parts of the continent, the same with René García as Vegeta, Carlos Segundo as Piccolo and Laura Torres as Kid!Goku and Kid!Gohan. They are so beloved as the characters that many were enraged when the voices were recast in Dragon Ball Z Kai.
The European Portuguese Dub. Due to averting Crossdressing Voices, there is only one Goku,note Who is also the only Gohan, and the only Trunks, and the only Goten only one Bulma,note Who was also the voice for about half the female characters in the show. etc. This even happens with the few characters who did change voice actors along the waynote Especially noticeable with both Vegeta and Piccolo, who always shared actors. The first voice used in DBZ is usually the go to for parodies.
For people who watch the series dubbed, to them, Sean Schemmel IS Son Goku.
There's Ian James Corlett, Goku's Ocean dub voice (which Schemmel's voice is an adaptation, impersonation, and refinement, of).
For fans of the original Funi dub, Stephanie Nadolny IS child Son Goku, and young Son Gohan (At least in his Cell Games incarnation).
Many fans of Dragon Ball Z Abridged have gone on record to state that they tend to hear dialogue between characters in their Abridged voices rather than the very well-established official voices from Funimation. Considering how big the Funimation dub of Dragon Ball Z is in the public consciousness, that's saying a lot.

A meta-example in King of the Hill. The reason why Bobby never underwent puberty, despite his friends Joseph and Connie doing so, is because the creators were so attached to Pamela Adlon's portrayal of Bobby that they didn't want to replace Adlon with a male actor as they had done with Brittany Murphy when Joseph had his growth spurt. The in-universe reason for Bobby not aging is that he's a late-bloomer.

Most Discworld fans who've seen Stephen Briggs play Lord Vetinari, or heard him do the audiobooks, will hear the Patrician in his voice, not least because, by the later books, Sir Terry Pratchett certainly did. (The bit in Going Postal about Lord V dyeing his hair was apparently a friendly dig at Briggs, and the official diaries list his birthday as Patrician Day.)

Homestuck has a popular base of amateur voice actors. Particularly, the portrayal of Eridan by Octopimp caught on in the fandom so much that some of the Verbal Tics he used for the character (for instance, his habit of saying odd nasal whiny nonsense sounds like 'nyeh' and 'wweh') hit Beam Me Up, Scotty! levels. "Wweh" did actually get a Fandom Nod in Homestuck eventually... by putting it in the mouth of a character representing Tumblr Fan Dumb.
Grey Delisle's take on Vriska is also very popular, although her Rose voice is...less so.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars:
Considering that Matt Lanter's very popular performance as Anakin Skywalker has played a major part in retroactively redeeming Anakin in the eyes of many from a whiny kid to a noble yet deeply flawed hero, it's not surprising that many consider him the definitive actor for Anakin.
James Arnold Taylor's excellent performance has made him the definitive voice actor for Obi-Wan.
Due to her popularity, Ashley Eckstein IS Ahsoka Tano since she puts a lot of her personality into Ahsoka's character.
Dee Bradley Baker's vocal performance as all of the clone troopers (which gave every single one of them a distinct personality despite being clones of Jango Fett) has made him the definitive actor for the clone troopers.
A significant amount of the voice actors that vocally performed as Jedi became the definite voice actors for the characters they voiced. They include James Arnold Taylor as Plo Koon, Olivia d'Abo as Luminara Unduli, Phil LaMarr as Kit Fisto, Jennifer Hale as Aayla Secura, Brian George as Ki-Adi Mundi, Meredith Salenger as Barriss Offee, Chris Edgerly as Eeth Koth, Angelique Perrin as Adi Gallia, and Tasia Valenza as Shaak Ti.
Sam Witwer's chillingly awesome voice acting has cemented him forever as THE definitive voice actor for Darth Maul. It is to such an extent that he got the unexpected honor of reprising his role as Maul in Solo.
Tom Kane's iconic narrating of the series. Admit it you read the opening crawls of the films in his voice.

It's pretty much a requirement for Undertale let's-players nowadays to read Papyrus's dialogue in Skeletor's voice. Likewise, Sans often sounds like Cr1TiKaL (or Patrick Star; Sans' only voice clip, an "ay" sound, was taken from a clip of Patrick saying "maybe it's the way you're dressed"). And a lot of people can't hear Flowey as anyone except Jacksepticeye now. Alternatively, fans of Undertale the Musical can place that production's cast into the roles of the characters they portray.

For the Marvel Universe:
Josh Keaton as Spider-Man; Eric Loomis as Tony Stark/Iron Man; Rick D. Wasserman as Thor; Fred Tatasciore as The Incredible Hulk (along with Gabriel Mann as Bruce Banner); Brian Bloom as Captain America; James C. Mathis III or Keith David as Black Panther; Chris Cox as Hawkeye; Vanessa Marshall as Black Widow; Steve Blum, Cal Dodd, or Scott McNeil as Wolverine; and Nolan North, John Kassir or Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool among others.
Spider-Man:
While fans generally hear Josh Keaton as Peter Parker and consider him to be the definitive voice actor for the web-slinger, there are older Spidey fans who will probably read the web-head's adventures in the perfectly-fitting voice of Christopher Daniel Barnes from Spider-Man: The Animated Series. Others have even heard the voices of his movie actors, Tobey Maguire (Spider-Man Trilogy), Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spider-Man Series), and Tom Holland (Marvel Cinematic Universe). With the popularity of Spidey's Insomniac games, this has extended to Yuri Lowenthal as well.
The casting of J. K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson in the Spider-Man Trilogy was so perfect that not hearing a voice like his coming out of the character is practically an impossibility. Before him, it was Ed Asner's gruff, somewhat nasal tone for Spider-Man: The Animated Series, which also had the late Roscoe Lee Brown's distinct voice for Wilson Fisk, The Kingpin. Fans also tend to hear Daran Norris as J. Jonah Jameson from The Spectacular Spider-Man, due to the fact that he had managed to emulate J.K. Simmons' voice while still putting in a great performance as the ill-tempered publisher of the Daily Bugle.
Most Spidey fans, especially those who are fans of the 2000 Spider-Man game see Daran Norris as the quintessential Venom voice; giving him a Large Ham voice with a comical tone to it, perfectly combining Venom's scare factor and sense of humor. Bonus points for Daran being one of the few Venom voices who didn't have a voice filter - the voice was done completely naturally. On the other hand, a sizable amount of fans also prefer either Hank Azarianote his voice from Spider-Man: The Animated Series, Ben Diskinnote his voice from Spectacular Spider-Man Tom Hardynote his voice from Venom, Keith Szarabajkanote his voice from Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, or Tony Toddnote his voice from Marvel's Spider-Man 2—just like with Norris, Todd's Venom voice is completely unfiltered.
Fans usually tend to hear either Kirsten Dunst, Vanessa Marshall, Tara Strong, or Laura Bailey as Mary Jane Watson; Lacey Chabert or Emma Stone for Gwen Stacy; Dove Cameron or Hailee Steinfeld as Spider-Gwen; Jennifer Hale, Tricia Helfer, or Erica Lindbeck as Black Cat; and Donald Glover, Nadji Jeter or Shameik Moore as Miles Morales.
Seen Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse? Congratulations, you now read Spider-Ham in John Mulaney's voice.
You might now be hearing Nicolas Cage as Spider-Man Noir. Or if you think he's too comedic, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions proposes the aforementioned Christopher Daniel Barnes as a more serious voice for Noir.
While those who played Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions tend to hear Dan Gilvezan's voice when they read the lines of Spider-Man 2099, some fans would rather prefer listening to Christopher Daniel Barnes' voice in Spider-Man: Edge of Time for a more serious portrayal of Miguel. Alternatively, there's Oscar Isaac for those who watched Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
Alfred Molina is Doctor Octopus. Though others have Tom Kenny, Efrem Zimbalist Jr., Peter MacNicol, and William Salyers.
Thanks to his iconic (and hammy) performance, Willem Dafoe is Norman Osborn for many fans. Alternates do exist in the form of Neil Ross for both personas, Steve Blum as the Goblin, and/or Alan Rachins or Mark Rolston for Osborn.
Harry Osborn is either James Franco, Matt Lanter, or James Arnold Taylor.
Thomas Haden Church or John DiMaggio are Sandman.
For many, Cliff Robertson or Ed Asner are Uncle Ben. For Aunt May, Linda Gary, Julie Bennett, Rosemary Harris, Deborah Strang, Nancy Linari, or Lily Tomlin are the popular choices.
For many fans, Carnage is either Scott Cleverdon and Dee Bradley Baker.
Fantastic Four:
Fans have the tendency of hearing Dee Bradley Baker, Beau Weaver, Gerald Mohr, Ioan Gruffudd or John Krasinski as Mr. Fantastic; Jessica Alba, Erin Torpey or Lori Alan as the the Invisible Woman; David Kaufman, Quinton Flynn, or even Chris Evans as the Human Torch; and Fred Tatasciore, the late Chuck McCann, Michael Chiklis or Dave Boat as the Thing when reading their lines from anywhere.
Chiklis is considered a definitive portrayal of the Thing that he not only returned to the 2005 game but also an episode of Robot Chicken.
Fans also tend to read Dr. Doom's lines and revelations from just about anywhere in the voice of Lex Lang, Simon Templeman, Paul Dobson, Maurice LaMarche, or Julian McMahon.
Fans like to read the Silver Surfer's lines in the voice of Laurence Fishburne.
The Incredible Hulk:
For many, Lou Ferrigno is the Hulk.
For the titular character's cousin She-Hulk, there's Lisa Zane, Cree Summer, Rebecca Shoichet, Maria Canals Barrera, or Eliza Dushku. There's also Tatiana Maslany for those who are fans of her live-action adaptation in the MCU.
For those who heavily admire Hulk over the Marvel Cinematic Universe tend to hear Eric Bana as Bruce Banner, Jennifer Connelly as Betty Ross, Nick Nolte as Brian Banner and Sam Elliott as General Ross.
For General "Thunderbolt" Ross, there's the aforementioned Sam Elliott, William Hurt (the MCU), or Clancy Brown (the Marvel Universe shows), either as Ross as himself or as the Red Hulk.
For fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe they tend to hear either Edward Norton or Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner, depending on if they liked the 2008 The Incredible Hulk or not.
X-Men:
Fans tend to hear Jim Ward, Patrick Stewart, Cedric Smith or James McAvoy as Professor Xavier; Cal Dodd, Steve Blum or Hugh Jackman as Wolverine; Nolan North, the late Norm Spencer, James Marsden, the late Kirby Morrow, or Ray Chase as Cyclops; Alison Sealy-Smith or Susan Dalian as Storm; Liam O'Brien as Angel; Yuri Lowenthal or James Arnold Taylor as Iceman; Jennifer Hale, Famke Janssen, Catherine Disher or Venus Terzo as Jean Grey; Fred Tatasciore, George Buza, Kelsey Grammer, or Nicholas Hoult as Beast; Liam O'Brien or Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler; Phil LaMarr, Chris Potter, or Tony Daniels as Gambit; Lenore Zann, Megan Black, or Kieren Van Den Blink as Rogue; Danielle Judovits, Kath Soucie, Maggie Blue O'Hara, or Elliot Page as Kitty Pryde; Lawrence Bayne as Cable and Kari Wahlgren as Emma Frost among the other members whenever they are reading their lines from just about anywhere.
As for the enemies of the X-Men (particularly the members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and others), fans tend to hear Tom Kane, the late Tony Jay, Ian McKellen, or the late David Hemblen as Magneto; Kate Higgins as Scarlet Witch; Mark Hildreth or Richard Ian Cox as Quicksilver; A.J. Buckley or Noel Fisher as Toad; Nigel Bennett or Travis Willingham as Mastermind; Stephen Stanton or Michael Dobson as the Blob; Nolan North or Trevor Devall as Pyro; James Patrick Stuart or Christopher Grey as Avalanche; Jennifer Dale, Coleen Wheeler, Tamara Bernier, Rebecca Romijn, or Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique; and Chris Britton or Clancy Brown as Mister Sinister, among other villains.
The '90s animated incarnation of Apocalypse is by far the most popular incarnation of the character, with the late John Colicos portraying every line of dialogue with the right amount of ego, gravitas and elegance befitting him. While other actors, like David Kaye and Oscar Isaac, have played Apocalypse since the passing of Colicos, there simply is no other that has played him without being compared to his original voice actor.
The Avengers:
Due to their very popular and iconic fan favorite portrayals in The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, fans tend to hear Wally Wingert as Dr. Henry "Hank" Pym (or whenever Hank is Ant-Man, Giant-Man, Goliath, or Yellowjacket) and Colleen O'Shaughnessey as The Wasp whenever they are reading any of their lines.
Also from The Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes, Carol Danvers (especially when she is either Ms. Marvel or Captain Marvel) tends to get read in the voice of Jennifer Hale, or more specifically like Commander Shepard.
Everyone reads Ultron in the voice of Tom Kane.
Kristen Schaal as Squirrel Girl, thanks to this video.
For Kamala Khan, Kathreen Khavari definitely qualifies.
Marvel Cinematic Universe:
Fans of the MCU have the tendency of hearing Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark (for those who grew up in the 90s, you can also hear Robert Hays), Chris Evans (or Roger Craig Smith, who manages to emulate the actor) as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Lou Ferrigno as Hulk (with Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner), Scarlett Johansson (or Laura Bailey, who manages to emulate the actress) as Black Widow, Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Don Cheadle as War Machine, Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes, Anthony Mackie as The Falcon, Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther, Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, Paul Bettany as The Vision, Brie Larson as Carol Danvers, Paul Rudd as Scott Lang, Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne, Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff, Mike Colter as Luke Cage, Finn Jones as Danny Rand, Jon Bernthal as The Punisher, Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter among others.
For fans of the 2008 The Incredible Hulk, they tend to hear Edward Norton as Bruce Banner than Ruffalo.
Daredevil: Charlie Cox's well-acclaimed portrayal of Matt Murdock has caused many to automatically imagine his voice whenever they are reading his adventures. Likewise, with Karen Page and Foggy Nelson, it's often hard to not imagine hearing Deborah Ann Woll's and Elden Henson's voices.
For many, Krysten Ritter IS Jessica Jones.
Everybody expects Rocket Raccoon and Groot to sound like Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel. If not Cooper for Rocket, then there's Greg Ellis. As for Groot, Troy Baker is also the voice that the fans expect to hear whenever they are reading his lines (particularly "I am Groot!"). In addition, expect to hear Chris Pratt (or Steve Downes) as Star-Lord, Zoe Saldaña as Gamora, Dave Bautista as Drax, Karen Gillan as Nebula and Pom Klementieff as Mantis.
For villains, expect to hear Josh Brolin as Thanos, James Spader as Ultron, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Jeff Bridges as Iron Monger, Lee Pace as Ronan the Accuser, Cate Blanchett as Hela, Andy Serkis as Ulysses Klaue, Hugo Weaving as Red Skull, Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk, David Tennant as Kilgrave, Michael B. Jordan as Erik Killmonger, among others.
Due to his hilarious cameos in the Guardians of the Galaxy films, most fans hear Seth Green as Howard the Duck.
Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts, Anthony Hopkins as Odin among others. Also just most casting choices in the movies and shows.
When reading The Punisher, you either hear John Beck or Thomas Jane as Frank Castle. After his tv series, Jon Bernthal has taken over, due to hisraspy voice and Character Tic laden portrayal giving Frank such a distinct feel.
When reading Doctor Strange, you can hear either Vincent Price, James Horan, or John Vernon.
Wesley Snipes as Blade.
Due to the cartoon, most people hear Diamond White as Moon Girl whenever they read Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.

Many fans of Dragon Ball Z Abridged have gone on record to state that they tend to hear dialogue between characters in their Abridged voices rather than the very well-established official voices from Funimation. Considering how big the Funimation dub of Dragon Ball Z is in the public consciousness, that's saying a lot.

Harry Potter has many, many examples, but the ones that stand out the most:
Hagrid was written for Robbie Coltrane's voice. Millions have tried, and failed to get "Yer a wizard, Harry" out of their heads.
Maggie Smith as McGonagall, another choice J. K. Rowling personally selected. Also notable because the books didn't really indicate she was an older lady until after the films started.
Alan Rickman's performance as Snape was so memorable even Rowling couldn't unhear it eventually, despite him being decades older than what she had intended.
Evanna Lynch as Luna Lovegood. Same as Snape, Rowling admitted to hearing her voice for Luna while writing her remaining parts in the books after she debuted in the films. Also notable because she wasn't written to be Irish (Stephen Fry even uses an English accent for her on the audio-books), but after Evanna was cast, the fans have accepted her as canonically Irish.

Similarly, Hordak was one of voice actor Keston John's first major roles, and he's done such a phenomenal job in making the role his own that it's hard to hear John's voice in other roles — such as Darius — without being reminded of Hordak.

Thanks to a 4chan post, it's become memetic that any picture of Farnsworth with the caption "Good news, everyone!" will cause the viewer to read it in his voice.
Same thing with the Old Spice Guy.
One imageboard-made Drinking Game has one card titled "Yay.", with a picture of Fluttershy. The text: if you read the card's title with Fluttershy's voice, finish your drink.
Oh nooo, y'all just read this in my voice.◊
Same with Dr Doofenshmirtz:
"An Example?" (Fedora) "gasp PERRY the Example!"
"If I had a nickel for every time a quote was read in my voice, I'd have two nickels! Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?"
Some of the earliest imageboard examples of this involve Boxy Brown, a cardboard box inanimate object from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Batman:
Comics fans, particularly the ones who grew up with Batman: The Animated Series or played the Batman: Arkham Series as their first exposure to Batman, consider the late Kevin Conroy's interpretation of Batman to be the voice of the character, and hear just about any dialogue from Batman in Conroy's voice.
Regardless of which version you think is best, Mark Hamill's interpretation of The Joker is often the one comics fans will hear in their heads when reading his lines from anywhere. Given that he and Conroy both started with BTAS, and worked together in the Arkham series and many other projects, they were truly the Dynamic Duo of Batman media.
While younger fans from the contemporary era generally hear Kevin Conroy as Batman and Mark Hamill as The Joker and consider them to be the definitive voice actors for the characters, there are some other fans that probably hear Michael Keaton, Christian Bale, Bruce Greenwood, Roger Craig Smith, or Troy Baker as Batman along with either Troy Baker, Richard Epcar, Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, Cameron Monaghan or especially Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker.
Ra's al Ghul, depending on whom you ask, is most associated with the late David Warner (DCAU), Liam Neeson (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Alexander Siddig (Gotham), or Dee Bradley Baker (Batman: Arkham Series). In regard to his daughters, most fans hear either Helen Slater (Batman: The Animated Series) or Stana Katic (Batman: Arkham City) as Talia and Katrina Law (Arrowverse) or Jennifer Hale (Batman: Arkham Knight) as Nyssa.
When it comes to The Penguin, then Burgess Meredith, Paul Williams, Danny DeVito, Nolan North, Tom Kenny, and Robin Lord Taylor are the usual associated voices.
Mr. Freeze's voice is most commonly associated with Michael Ansara, since that version of Freeze is perhaps the most popular incarnation of the character and became the basis on which other portrayals were founded; Maurice LaMarche is a close second.
Catwoman is likely either Adrienne Barbeau (Batman: The Animated Series), Grey DeLisle (Batman: Arkham Series and Injustice), Michelle Pfeiffer (Batman Returns), or Anne Hathaway (The Dark Knight Rises).
The Riddler is either Frank Gorshin (Batman (1966)), John Glover (Batman: The Animated Series), Cory Michael Smith (Gotham), or Wally Wingert (Batman: Arkham Series).
For Two-Face, there's the late Richard Moll (Batman: The Animated Series), Troy Baker (Batman: Arkham Series and Batman Unlimited: Mechs Vs. Mutants), or Travis Willingham (Batman: The Telltale Series).
Fans have the tendency of hearing Loren Lester as Dick Grayson/Robin/Nightwing and Tara Strong as Barbara Gordon/Batgirl. If not them, then maybe Scott Menville, Jesse Mc Cartney, Neil Patrick Harris, Will Friedle or Troy Baker for Dick and Kimberly Brooks as Barbara.
Jason Todd is either Jensen Ackles, Troy Baker, or Cameron Bowen.
Poison Ivy is either Diane Pershing (DCAU), Lake Bell (Harley Quinn (2019)) or Tasia Valenza (The Arkham and Injustice games).
Harley Quinn is either the late Arleen Sorkin (DCAU), Tara Strong (Batman: Arkham Series among others), Margot Robbie (DCEU), Kaley Cuoco (Harley Quinn (2019)) or Hynden Walch (The Batman and DC Animated Movie Universe).
The definitive voice of Alfred is likely either Clive Revill (early Batman: The Animated Series episodes), the late Efrem Zimbalist Jr. (the rest of DC Animated Universe), the late Michael Gough (Batman Film Series), Alastair Duncan (The Batman, the Batman Unlimited films and Batman: The Long Halloween), Michael Caine (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Martin Jarvis (Batman: Arkham Series), James Garrett (Batman: The Brave and the Bold and later DC Animated Movie Universe films), or Jeremy Irons (DC Extended Universe).
For Commissioner Gordon, there's the late Bob Hastings (the DC Animated Universe), Gary Oldman (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Bryan Cranston (Batman: Year One), Tom Kane (Batman: Arkham Asylum and LEGO DC Super-Villains), Benjamin McKenzie (Gotham), or Kurtwood Smith (Beware the Batman).
Robert Costanzo is Harvey Bullock.
Those over a certain age are likely to "hear" Adam West (or maybe Diedrich Bader) instead, particular in the older, campier Batman stories that have originated from the Golden Age and the Silver Age of the Batman (as well as the DC superheroes) comic books. Likewise, it's hard not to imagine the voices of Cesar Romero, Burgess Meredith and Frank Gorshin as the Gold and Silver Age versions of the Joker, the Penguin, and the Riddler.
For The Scarecrow, Jeffrey Combs (The New Batman Adventures), Cillian Murphy (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Dino Andrade (The greater Batman: Arkham Series), John Noble (Batman: Arkham Knight) or Robert Englund (Injustice 2) are usually common candidates for Jonathan Crane's voice.
For the Michael Lane Azrael, there's Khary Payton, thanks to the Batman: Arkham Series.
As another courtesy from the Batman: Arkham Series, fans can't help but hear the voice of Dwight Schultz as Professor Pyg whenever they read something in his voice. That, or Brian George (Beware the Batman).
For Bane, there's Henry Silva (Batman: The Animated Series), Danny Trejo (Young Justice), Fred Tatasciore (Batman: Arkham Series and Injustice), Tom Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises), and JB Blanc (The Arkham prequel games and Batman: The Telltale Series).
For Killer Croc, there's either Aron Kincaid (Batman: The Animated Series), Brooks Gardener (The New Batman Adventures), Ron Perlman (The Batman), Steve Blum (for most of the Batman: Arkham Series), Khary Payton (Batman: Arkham Origins), Wade Williams (Beware the Batman), Fred Tatasciore (Son of Batman), or John DiMaggio (Batman Unlimited: Animal Instincts).
For Lady Shiva, she's either Finola Hughes (Beware the Batman), Kelly Hu (Batman: Arkham Origins and Batman: Soul of the Dragon) or Gwendoline Yeo (Young Justice (2010)).
Deadshot is either Michael Rosenbaum (DCAU), Chris Cox (most of the Batman: Arkham Series), Neal McDonough (Batman: Assault on Arkham), Christian Slater (Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay and Justice League Action), Will Smith (DCEU), or Matthew Mercer (Injustice).
For Hugo Strange, most fans hear either Corey Burton (Batman: Arkham City), Frank Gorshin (The Batman in his first three appearances), or B.D. Wong (Gotham).

Hannibal Lecter:
For many, Hannibal Lecter will always be Anthony Hopkins. However, those that don't hear Hopkins will often hear either Brian Cox or Mads Mikkelsen.

Simply put, its an extremely tall task if not outright impossible to read The Simpsons comics without hearing the characters from the show themselves, or even resist trying to do impressions of their voices while reading them out loud.

There've been several adaptations of The Lord of the Rings, but if you've seen the Peter Jackson films, then like as not it's next to impossible for you not to hear Ian McKellen's voice when reading Gandalf's dialogue, or Elijah Wood as Frodo, Christopher Lee as Saruman, etc.

It's even more likely you will read U.S. Acres with the Garfield and Friends voices as well, especially since the show in fact outlived the strip and became more the mainstream interpretation for a while.

Super Mario Bros.:
The voice a given fan associates with Mario largely depends on the age of the fan and how they got introduced to the character:
Fans who were introduced to the franchise in the '80s and early '90s often associate Mario with Captain Lou Albano's rendition from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! and his imitators in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World. The precedent Albano set was so firmly entrenched in the public consciousness that Nintendo found it difficult to find English-speaking voice actors who didn't try to imitate him.
Fans introduced to the series from the late '90s onward can't imagine anything but Charles Martinet's rendition. Martinet's Mario was so ubiquitous, with him staying in the role until 2023 and achieving a Guinness World Record for most performances as a single video game character, that his take serves as the basis for most parodies and impressions of Mario.
Anyone who's seen enough YouTube Poop videos featuring the infamous "Mama Luigi" episode will never be able to hear this song again without hearing the voices from the opening scene of the episode.
Luigi's voice will come in one of two flavors for younger fans: the timid, deeper voice of Martinet, and the Brooklyn-style wisecracking of Tony Rosato's memetic performance in Super Mario World (1991). The first voice is considered a great fit with his game appearances, but the second is seen as the definitive voice out of the three he had for the adaptations.
With Bowser, he tends to be associated with a number of different voices depending on who you talk to:
Among older fans who grew up in the '80s and early '90s, Bowser is usually associated with Harvey Atkin's performance as King Koopa in the DiC Entertainment cartoonsnote The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, and Super Mario World. The fact that Bowser is oftentimes as snarky as his animated counterpart in the RPGs further adds onto the lasting popularity of Atkin's voice.
Among those who were introduced to the games in the 21st century, Bowser is typically associated with Scott Burns' portrayal from Super Mario Sunshine, thanks to it being the only time Bowser was ever fully voiced in a mainline Mario title. Burns' version of Bowser is so firmly etched into the public consciousness that it influenced incumbent voice actor Kenny James' take on the role.
In The New '20s, many fans started associating Bowser with Jack Black's performance from The Super Mario Bros. Movie thanks to many viewers considering him the highlight of the film's otherwise controversial casting.

For fans, the low voice in Pokémon: The First Movie will always be Mewtwo's voice in your mind.
For the anime as a whole, in the Latin American dub most fans consider Gabriel Ramos to be Ash's official voice, instead of his replacement Miguel �ngel Leal.

Thanks to the popularity of its television adaptation, many readers of The Walking Dead comics hear the voices of the cast when going through the issues. Notably Andrew Lincoln as Rick, Chandler Riggs as Carl, Steven Yeun as Glenn, Lennie James as Morgan, Jon Bernthal as Shane, Lauren Cohan as Maggie, the late Scott Wilson as Hershel, David Morrissey as The Governor, Danai Gurira as Michonne, Michael Cudlitz as Abraham, Josh McDermitt as Eugene, Christian Serratos as Rosita, Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Negan, Khary Payton as Ezekiel, Ryan Hurst as Beta, Paola Lázaro as Princess, and Michael James Shaw as Mercer. There are some exceptions, however, usually when the show's adaptation of a character is simply very different from the comic incarnation, such as Carol Peletier, who is a world of difference away from her comic counterpart (does anybody really want to imagine Melissa McBride as a Carol who loses her sanity and feeds herself to a walker out of loneliness?).

While those who played Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions tend to hear Dan Gilvezan's voice when they read the lines of Spider-Man 2099, some fans would rather prefer listening to Christopher Daniel Barnes' voice in Spider-Man: Edge of Time for a more serious portrayal of Miguel. Alternatively, there's Oscar Isaac for those who watched Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

People who've seen Kirby: Right Back at Ya! will have a good chance of imaging Dedede with his Southern voice and Meta Knight with his Spanish voice. It becomes a problem when you hear Meta Knight's voice in Super Smash Bros. as it just sounds like a deep, gravelly, menacing voice... until you listen real closely. He still has the accent!

Sailor Moon has a few permutations for the manga and various fanworks.
The original Japanese cast of Kotono Mitsuishi (Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon), Kae Araki (Chibiusa/Sailor Chibi Moon), Aya Hisakawa (Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury), Michie Tomizawa (Rei Hino/Sailor Mars), Emi Shinohara (Makoto Kino/Sailor Jupiter), and Rika Fukami (Minako Aino/Sailor Venus), respectively. Mitsuishi was a big enough influence for Naoko Takeuchi that it was said to inform her of Sailor Moon's lines as if she were saying them.
The original English dub, with so many changing voice casts is harder to pin down. Tracey Moore (first actress) and Terri Hawkes (second actress) (Moon), Stephanie Beard (second actress) (Chibiusa), Karen Bernstein (first actress) (Mercury), Katie Griffin (Mars), Susan Roman (Jupiter), and Stephanie Morgenstern (first actress) (Venus). For 90s fans, there's debate between Tracey's more childlike voice, and Terri's more mature but better-acted. Stephanie Beard's cute voice for Chibi was, and to this day remains a fan favorite. Bernstein memorably gave Mercury a precise diction and clipped tone that did a great job at depicting her intelligence without being overstated. And Roman's deep, powerful voice was so good even her modern actress agrees. Also, even those that dislike anything but the original Japanese track have a hard time thinking of Luna without that trademark British accent.
The re-dubbed version by Viz Media has produced some notable voices of its own. Stephanie Sheh gives Usagi a bubbly voice that just might top all others in sheer cuteness, Sandy Fox particularly among Flonne admirers have started to accept her as Chibi for getting the casting down to an almost painful degree, Cristina Vee being a very popular dubbing actress won praise as Mars before the release was even out, Amanda Céline Miller adopting a very similar tone for Jupiter to her previous va, as well as being an Ascended Fangirl in regards to the character endeers her to many, and Cherami Leigh's naturally warm voice became unexpectedly beloved with Venus fans.

Superman:
Either Tim Daly or George Newbern is considered to be Superman's definite voice actor. Nolan North (Young Justice (2010)), Jason J. Lewis (Justice League Action), and Travis Willingham (LEGO Batman, LEGO DC Super-Villains, Batman And Superman Battle Of The Super Sons, and Justice League × RWBY: Super Heroes & Huntsmen Part 2) are also popular.
Also coming from the DC Animated Universe, Clancy Brown's interpretation of Lex Luthor is considered to be the voice of the character. Mark Rolston (as heard in Young Justice (2010) and Injustice: Gods Among Us) is a close second. In terms of Live-Action, a lot of fans tend to hear either Michael Rosenbaum (Smallville) or Jon Cryer (Arrowverse).
For Brainiac, most fans tend to hear Corey Burton (DC Animated Universe, Legion of Super Heroes (2006), and DC Universe Online), James Marsters (Smallville), or Jeffrey Combs (Injustice 2) when reading his lines.
Dana Delany is considered by many to be Lois Lane. If not her, then Grey DeLisle from Justice League: Doom or Pauley Perrette from Superman vs. the Elite.
Supergirl is Nicholle Tom. If not her, then maybe Helen Slater, Summer Glau, Laura Bailey, or Nicole Sullivan.
Jimmy Olsen is either David Kaufman, Adam Wylie, or Max Mittelman.
For Livewire, Lori Petty is the definitive voice for many fans out there.
Christopher Reeve is the default actor for the Man of Steel for many older fans. Clayton "Bud" Collyer, the voice of Superman in the radio series, Paramount's theatrical shorts, and the Filmation television series, is also a popular choice for older fans, especially for Golden and Silver Age stories.
In addition to Reeve, there's Margot Kidder as Lois Lane, Marlon Brando as Jor-El and Terence Stamp as General Zod.
For Latin American fans, especially those who grew during the 2000s, it's hard to recognize a voice for the Man of Steel other than Luis Miguel Pérez, given that he was his regular voice actor for most of his appearances in animated series and movies during that time.
In a less flattering example, Lewis Lovhaug's mockingly Wangsty voice for Superboy-Prime works very well. That said, when asked about it during one of his Hitman (2016) livestreams, Lovhaug admitted he wasn't sure how to feel about this status precisely due to the voice's mocking nature. The Motion Comic version of Dark Nights: Death Metal did give an official voice in the form of Henri Cash from the band Starcrawler.
For Mister Mxyzptlk, Gilbert Gottfried is the most well known voice.

Thanks to Freeman's Mind, it's very hard to imagine Gordon Freeman sounding like anyone other than Ross Scott. If Gordon ever canonically said anything, that is. Ironically, Ross initially got complaints from people who couldn't imagine his voice coming from Gordon, only for him to quickly shut them up by posting a picture of himself showing that, at the time, he looked practically identical to Gordon.

Most Spidey fans, especially those who are fans of the 2000 Spider-Man game see Daran Norris as the quintessential Venom voice; giving him a Large Ham voice with a comical tone to it, perfectly combining Venom's scare factor and sense of humor. Bonus points for Daran being one of the few Venom voices who didn't have a voice filter - the voice was done completely naturally. On the other hand, a sizable amount of fans also prefer either Hank Azarianote his voice from Spider-Man: The Animated Series, Ben Diskinnote his voice from Spectacular Spider-Man Tom Hardynote his voice from Venom, Keith Szarabajkanote his voice from Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, or Tony Toddnote his voice from Marvel's Spider-Man 2—just like with Norris, Todd's Venom voice is completely unfiltered.

For The DCU:
Batman:
Comics fans, particularly the ones who grew up with Batman: The Animated Series or played the Batman: Arkham Series as their first exposure to Batman, consider the late Kevin Conroy's interpretation of Batman to be the voice of the character, and hear just about any dialogue from Batman in Conroy's voice.
Regardless of which version you think is best, Mark Hamill's interpretation of The Joker is often the one comics fans will hear in their heads when reading his lines from anywhere. Given that he and Conroy both started with BTAS, and worked together in the Arkham series and many other projects, they were truly the Dynamic Duo of Batman media.
While younger fans from the contemporary era generally hear Kevin Conroy as Batman and Mark Hamill as The Joker and consider them to be the definitive voice actors for the characters, there are some other fans that probably hear Michael Keaton, Christian Bale, Bruce Greenwood, Roger Craig Smith, or Troy Baker as Batman along with either Troy Baker, Richard Epcar, Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, Cameron Monaghan or especially Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker.
Ra's al Ghul, depending on whom you ask, is most associated with the late David Warner (DCAU), Liam Neeson (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Alexander Siddig (Gotham), or Dee Bradley Baker (Batman: Arkham Series). In regard to his daughters, most fans hear either Helen Slater (Batman: The Animated Series) or Stana Katic (Batman: Arkham City) as Talia and Katrina Law (Arrowverse) or Jennifer Hale (Batman: Arkham Knight) as Nyssa.
When it comes to The Penguin, then Burgess Meredith, Paul Williams, Danny DeVito, Nolan North, Tom Kenny, and Robin Lord Taylor are the usual associated voices.
Mr. Freeze's voice is most commonly associated with Michael Ansara, since that version of Freeze is perhaps the most popular incarnation of the character and became the basis on which other portrayals were founded; Maurice LaMarche is a close second.
Catwoman is likely either Adrienne Barbeau (Batman: The Animated Series), Grey DeLisle (Batman: Arkham Series and Injustice), Michelle Pfeiffer (Batman Returns), or Anne Hathaway (The Dark Knight Rises).
The Riddler is either Frank Gorshin (Batman (1966)), John Glover (Batman: The Animated Series), Cory Michael Smith (Gotham), or Wally Wingert (Batman: Arkham Series).
For Two-Face, there's the late Richard Moll (Batman: The Animated Series), Troy Baker (Batman: Arkham Series and Batman Unlimited: Mechs Vs. Mutants), or Travis Willingham (Batman: The Telltale Series).
Fans have the tendency of hearing Loren Lester as Dick Grayson/Robin/Nightwing and Tara Strong as Barbara Gordon/Batgirl. If not them, then maybe Scott Menville, Jesse Mc Cartney, Neil Patrick Harris, Will Friedle or Troy Baker for Dick and Kimberly Brooks as Barbara.
Jason Todd is either Jensen Ackles, Troy Baker, or Cameron Bowen.
Poison Ivy is either Diane Pershing (DCAU), Lake Bell (Harley Quinn (2019)) or Tasia Valenza (The Arkham and Injustice games).
Harley Quinn is either the late Arleen Sorkin (DCAU), Tara Strong (Batman: Arkham Series among others), Margot Robbie (DCEU), Kaley Cuoco (Harley Quinn (2019)) or Hynden Walch (The Batman and DC Animated Movie Universe).
The definitive voice of Alfred is likely either Clive Revill (early Batman: The Animated Series episodes), the late Efrem Zimbalist Jr. (the rest of DC Animated Universe), the late Michael Gough (Batman Film Series), Alastair Duncan (The Batman, the Batman Unlimited films and Batman: The Long Halloween), Michael Caine (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Martin Jarvis (Batman: Arkham Series), James Garrett (Batman: The Brave and the Bold and later DC Animated Movie Universe films), or Jeremy Irons (DC Extended Universe).
For Commissioner Gordon, there's the late Bob Hastings (the DC Animated Universe), Gary Oldman (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Bryan Cranston (Batman: Year One), Tom Kane (Batman: Arkham Asylum and LEGO DC Super-Villains), Benjamin McKenzie (Gotham), or Kurtwood Smith (Beware the Batman).
Robert Costanzo is Harvey Bullock.
Those over a certain age are likely to "hear" Adam West (or maybe Diedrich Bader) instead, particular in the older, campier Batman stories that have originated from the Golden Age and the Silver Age of the Batman (as well as the DC superheroes) comic books. Likewise, it's hard not to imagine the voices of Cesar Romero, Burgess Meredith and Frank Gorshin as the Gold and Silver Age versions of the Joker, the Penguin, and the Riddler.
For The Scarecrow, Jeffrey Combs (The New Batman Adventures), Cillian Murphy (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Dino Andrade (The greater Batman: Arkham Series), John Noble (Batman: Arkham Knight) or Robert Englund (Injustice 2) are usually common candidates for Jonathan Crane's voice.
For the Michael Lane Azrael, there's Khary Payton, thanks to the Batman: Arkham Series.
As another courtesy from the Batman: Arkham Series, fans can't help but hear the voice of Dwight Schultz as Professor Pyg whenever they read something in his voice. That, or Brian George (Beware the Batman).
For Bane, there's Henry Silva (Batman: The Animated Series), Danny Trejo (Young Justice), Fred Tatasciore (Batman: Arkham Series and Injustice), Tom Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises), and JB Blanc (The Arkham prequel games and Batman: The Telltale Series).
For Killer Croc, there's either Aron Kincaid (Batman: The Animated Series), Brooks Gardener (The New Batman Adventures), Ron Perlman (The Batman), Steve Blum (for most of the Batman: Arkham Series), Khary Payton (Batman: Arkham Origins), Wade Williams (Beware the Batman), Fred Tatasciore (Son of Batman), or John DiMaggio (Batman Unlimited: Animal Instincts).
For Lady Shiva, she's either Finola Hughes (Beware the Batman), Kelly Hu (Batman: Arkham Origins and Batman: Soul of the Dragon) or Gwendoline Yeo (Young Justice (2010)).
Deadshot is either Michael Rosenbaum (DCAU), Chris Cox (most of the Batman: Arkham Series), Neal McDonough (Batman: Assault on Arkham), Christian Slater (Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay and Justice League Action), Will Smith (DCEU), or Matthew Mercer (Injustice).
For Hugo Strange, most fans hear either Corey Burton (Batman: Arkham City), Frank Gorshin (The Batman in his first three appearances), or B.D. Wong (Gotham).
Superman:
Either Tim Daly or George Newbern is considered to be Superman's definite voice actor. Nolan North (Young Justice (2010)), Jason J. Lewis (Justice League Action), and Travis Willingham (LEGO Batman, LEGO DC Super-Villains, Batman And Superman Battle Of The Super Sons, and Justice League × RWBY: Super Heroes & Huntsmen Part 2) are also popular.
Also coming from the DC Animated Universe, Clancy Brown's interpretation of Lex Luthor is considered to be the voice of the character. Mark Rolston (as heard in Young Justice (2010) and Injustice: Gods Among Us) is a close second. In terms of Live-Action, a lot of fans tend to hear either Michael Rosenbaum (Smallville) or Jon Cryer (Arrowverse).
For Brainiac, most fans tend to hear Corey Burton (DC Animated Universe, Legion of Super Heroes (2006), and DC Universe Online), James Marsters (Smallville), or Jeffrey Combs (Injustice 2) when reading his lines.
Dana Delany is considered by many to be Lois Lane. If not her, then Grey DeLisle from Justice League: Doom or Pauley Perrette from Superman vs. the Elite.
Supergirl is Nicholle Tom. If not her, then maybe Helen Slater, Summer Glau, Laura Bailey, or Nicole Sullivan.
Jimmy Olsen is either David Kaufman, Adam Wylie, or Max Mittelman.
For Livewire, Lori Petty is the definitive voice for many fans out there.
Christopher Reeve is the default actor for the Man of Steel for many older fans. Clayton "Bud" Collyer, the voice of Superman in the radio series, Paramount's theatrical shorts, and the Filmation television series, is also a popular choice for older fans, especially for Golden and Silver Age stories.
In addition to Reeve, there's Margot Kidder as Lois Lane, Marlon Brando as Jor-El and Terence Stamp as General Zod.
For Latin American fans, especially those who grew during the 2000s, it's hard to recognize a voice for the Man of Steel other than Luis Miguel Pérez, given that he was his regular voice actor for most of his appearances in animated series and movies during that time.
In a less flattering example, Lewis Lovhaug's mockingly Wangsty voice for Superboy-Prime works very well. That said, when asked about it during one of his Hitman (2016) livestreams, Lovhaug admitted he wasn't sure how to feel about this status precisely due to the voice's mocking nature. The Motion Comic version of Dark Nights: Death Metal did give an official voice in the form of Henri Cash from the band Starcrawler.
For Mister Mxyzptlk, Gilbert Gottfried is the most well known voice.
A lot of younger fans grew up with the DCAU's versions of the characters and thus consider the voices of the characters featured to be the definitive voices. Susan Eisenberg as Wonder Woman, Phil LaMarr as John Stewart/Green Lantern, Carl Lumbly as Martian Manhunter, Michael Ironside as Darkseid, etc.
Speaking of Wonder Woman, some fans might hear either Shannon Farnon or Lynda Carter while reading the Golden and Silver Age stories.
Grey DeLisle is also a popular choice for Wonder Woman, particularly since she's the only one to voice her both as an adult and a teenager.
Also popular for Diana are Laura Bailey (LEGO Batman and Justice League × RWBY: Super Heroes & Huntsmen Part 2) and Abby Trott (Multi Versus).
Still related to Wonder Woman, Cheetah is either Sheryl Lee Ralph (Justice League), Claudia Black (Justice League: Doom), or Erica Luttrell (JLA Adventures: Trapped In Time, LEGO Batman, and Injustice 2) for Barbara Minerva and Marlene Aragon (Superfriends) for Priscilla Rich.
Green Lantern:
For Hal Jordan, fans will often imagine Adam Baldwin, Nathan Fillion, Josh Keaton, or Steve Blum.
Either James Arnold Taylor or Diedrich Bader is Guy Gardner.
As detailed above, Phil LaMarr is John Stewart.
Either Michael P. Greco or Will Friedle is Kyle Rayner.
Either Dennis Haysbert, John DiMaggio, Michael Clarke Duncan, or Kevin Michael Richardson is Killowog.
Cristina Milizia, Myrna Velasco, or Diane Guerrero is Jessica Cruz.
Either Ted Levine, the late Miguel Ferrer, Ron Perlman, Victor Garber, Jason Isaacs, Marc Worden, or Troy Baker is Sinestro.
Either Jonathan Adams, Michael Dorn, or Ike Amadi is Atrocitus.
Dee Bradley Baker is Larfleeze.
Aquaman is either the late Miguel Ferrer, Scott Rummell, John DiMaggio, Phil LaMarr, or Jason Momoa.
Read a comic with Lobo in it and try not to read it in the voice of Brad Garrett, Kevin Michael Richardson, or David Sobolov. Go on. We dare you.
Grey DeLisle is Darlene Spritzer.
The Flash:
For many fans, Michael Rosenbaum is both Barry Allen and Wally West. If not him, then there is Charlie Schlatter, Neal McDonough, Josh Keaton, or Taliesin Jaffe as Barry Allen and Jason Spisak as Wally West.
For Jay Garrick, John Wesley Shipp's take is also popular.
Jason Marsden's performance as Bart Allen is the most remembered.
When it comes to the Flash's Rogues, there's one definite constant: Mark Hamill is the Trickster.
For Gorilla Grodd, there's with the late Powers Boothe (Justice League), John DiMaggio (Batman: The Brave and the Bold), David Sobolov (Arrowverse), or Charles Halford (Injustice 2).
For Professor Zoom, there's C. Thomas Howell, Tom Cavanagh or Matt Letscher.
Newer fans will tend to hear Barry with the voice of Taliesin Jaffe (as detailed above), Jay with Travis Willingham, and Zoom/Thawne Liam O'Brien (Injustice 2).
Green Arrow: Either Kin Shriner or Alan Tudyk is the voice of Oliver Queen for many.
Black Canary is voiced by Morena Baccarin, Vanessa Marshall, or Grey Delisle.
On the Teen Titans end of things: Khary Payton as Cyborg, Tara Strong as Raven, Greg Cipes as Beast Boy, (as mentioned above) Scott Menville as Robin/Nightwing, and Hynden Walch as Starfire. After Teen Titans (2003) and Teen Titans Go!, they will never leave.
For the grown-up version of Starfire, there's Kari Wahlgren.
C.C.H. Pounder is Amanda Waller. Like, even in live-action, she'd fit.
For Zatanna, it's either Jennifer Hale, Tara Strong, Lacey Chabert or Kari Wahlgren.
Some fans of the DC Extended Universe hear the voices of Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, and Ray Porter as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Darkseid, respectively.
Some fans of the Arrowverse tend to hear Supergirl, the Flash, Green Arrow, and Black Canary's lines in the voices of Melissa Benoist, Grant Gustin, Stephen Amell, and Katie Cassidy, respectively.
For Deathstroke, there's Ron Perlman, Manu Bennett, Mark Rolston, J.G. Hertzler, Fred Tatasciore, the late Miguel Ferrer, and Esai Morales.
Matt Ryan IS John Constantine.
For Plastic Man, either Michael Bell, Tom Kenny or Dana Snyder.
Thanks to Justice League and Justice League Action, Stargirl is respectively either Giselle Loren or Natalie Lander.
Despite the character's Adaptational Dumbass and Adaptational Comic Relief in The Suicide Squad, King Shark was so beloved that Sylvester Stallone's low, strong voice has become this for the character, with many finding it fitting for other versions of Nanaue. For those who come from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, they will instead hear Samoa Joe.
Since they were the first major portrayal of the characters and their performances have been unanimously well-received, the cast of Doom Patrol (2019) have been adopted as THE voices of their characters, especially Brendan Fraser and Matt Bomer as Robotman and Negative Man respectively.
Thanks to John Cena's performance in both The Suicide Squad and the eponymous series, he is Peacemaker, even in his original Silver Age version.
Thanks to both the Netflix series and Audible audio play of The Sandman (1989), it's hard to un-hear Tom Sturridge or James McAvoy as Morpheus/Dream of the Endless.
For Lucifer, most fans tend to hear Tom Ellis (Lucifer (2016) and Crisis on Infinite Earths (2019)), Gwendoline Christie (The Sandman (2022)), or Michael Sheen (The Sandman (2020)).
Other go-to voices for Darkseid include Tony Todd (The LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes specials and most of the DC Animated Movie Universe) or Michael Leon Wooley (Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Injustice 2, and Young Justice (2010))
Fred Tatasciore or Michael Dorn is the Swamp Thing.
Owing to the positive audience reaction to character's appearance in Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Mark Hamill is seen as a main go-to voice for The Spectre, rivaled only by Gary Cole.
For Jonah Hex, it's either Bill McKinney, Adam Baldwin, Jim Cummings, Thomas Jane or Josh Brolin for a select few who enjoyed the 2010 movie.
For Doctor Fate, most fans hear either George DelHoyo (Superman: The Animated Series), Oded Fehr (Justice League), Kevin Michael Richardson (Young Justice (2010)), David Sobolov (Injustice 2) or Pierce Brosnan (Black Adam (2022)) when reading the comics.

Similar to the Hubert Farnsworth example below, someone on 4chan posted a page out of an eroge featuring Tsuruya saying "My breasts... Megassa squeeze them" - a reference to the "megas" Verbal Tic she's Flanderized into saying repeatedly in Fanon, despite saying it only once in canon. The next post had a picture of Jar-Jar Binks with the exact same line. Hilarity, and Brain Bleach, soon followed.

For the fans of the live-action movies, they'll most likely hear the voices of Freddie Prinze Jr., Sarah Michelle Gellar, Linda Cardellini, and Matthew Lillard respectively.

This is one of the points of contention in the Touhou Project games: While many video fan works featuring the characters were voiced by fans, it was not until the Musou Kakyou: A Summer Day's Dream fanime (who was voiced by professional voice actors and not fans) when you cannot picture the characters with other voices, especially Mai Nakahara's rendition of Reimu Hakurei. This is averted in the Koumajou Densetsu doujin game: Despise being also voiced by professional voice actors, since the whole topic of the game is an Alternate Universe Fic of the whole franchise, this is not a big problem per se, since the personalities of the characters in this game are different from the established canon. Nevertheless, everyone pretty much agree that Miyuki Sawashiro's frosty adult woman voice is the best Sakuya Izayoi. Many people tend to hear Miko as Cirno's voice due to Cirno's Perfect Math Class.

Yu-Gi-Oh!:
Fans of Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series constantly hear the abridged voices instead of the normal ones. The character Duke Devlin in particular has fans hearing "Sexy Back" when he is on screen.
Fans of the English dub will likely imagine the characters in those voices; Dan Green as Atem, Eric Stuart as Kaiba, Megan Hollingshead as Mai Valentine, Greg Abbey as Tristan Taylor etc.

The 1965 cast of The Sound of Music, particularly Julie Andrews as Maria and Christopher Plummer as Captain von Trapp. Even die-hard fans of Kara Tointon and Julian Ovenden, who received excellent reviews for their roles in the 2015 ITV live broadcast of the stage version, still admit that Andrews and Plummer are so iconic as to be unsurpassable.

You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown has the song "Schroeder", written around the ''Moonlight'' sonata. Once you've seen the musical, it's impossible to listen to a normal performance of the sonata without hearing Lucy's lines, especially "Do ya know something, Schroeder?". Same would apply to the gang arguing over a stolen pencil to the tone of "Home on the Range" during "Glee Club Rehearsal".

Even though King's Quest V: Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder!'s voice acting is generally considered amateurishnote and not unjustifiably, since it was done by regular Sierra staffers — who were writers and programmers but certainly not voice actors, Josh Mandel's voice for King Graham is still well-regarded by fans and he's reprised the role in multiple Fan Remakes of earlier King's Quest games.

While the Peanuts voice actors have changed over the years due to them being voiced by actual children, the voices from the original 60's specials, such as Peter Robbins as Charlie Brown, Christopher Shea as Linus, Sally Dryer or Tracy Stratford as Lucy, Cathy Steinberg as Sally, and Glenn Mendelson or Chris Doran as Schroder, while likely be the first ones that come to reader's minds, and the fact that the two best remembered specials in the franchise both come from that era may have something to do with it. And of course, there's also Snoopy—when he's properly thinking words, readers may think of them in the voice of either Robert Towers or Cam Clarke, while if he makes any other noise, such as barking, grumbling, or howling, it will always, always, always be imagined in the voices supplied by the late animator and director Bill Melendez.
Jimmy Bennett for the few times he voiced Rerun Van Pelt in the early 2000s is completely unmistakable in the role.
Producer Lee Mendelson made a point of trying to match the new voice actors to the ones who first played the roles, in a few cases even using younger siblings (e.g. Christopher Shea's brother Stephen voiced Linus for a while in The '70s).
And of course, despite the fact that they have no words in the strips, Who doesn't pause to hear trombone sounds right before a kid responds to an adult's words.

The '90s animated incarnation of Apocalypse is by far the most popular incarnation of the character, with the late John Colicos portraying every line of dialogue with the right amount of ego, gravitas and elegance befitting him. While other actors, like David Kaye and Oscar Isaac, have played Apocalypse since the passing of Colicos, there simply is no other that has played him without being compared to his original voice actor.

Before Sonic the Hedgehog had a voice in his games, Jaleel White was the definitive voice, largely due to voicing him in three different cartoons. When it comes to the games, it's Ryan Drummond, Jason Griffith or Roger Craig Smith. There's even Ben Schwartz for fans of the film series.
Tails is either Christopher Stephen Welch (Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog), Bradley Pierce (Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM)), Kate Higgins (games 2010-13), or Colleen O'Shaughnessey (games 2014- and movie series).
Knuckles is either Scott Dreier (games 2001-2004), Dan Green (Sonic X, games 2005-2010), Travis Willingham (Sonic Boom, games 2010-2018), or Idris Elba (movie series).
For Doctor Robotnik/Eggman, it's either Long John Baldry (AoSTH), Jim Cummings (SatAM), Gary Chalk (Sonic Underground), Jim Carrey (movie series) or Mike Pollock. In fact, it's safe to say that Mike Pollock is this trope to SEGA themselves. Since he started voicing Eggman, the entire cast of voice actors in the games has been replaced twice and yet he's stuck around, simply because they just couldn't find anyone else who fit the role as well as him.
Besides the fact that Mecha Sonic from Sonic 3 & Knuckles ended up becoming extremely popular thanks to Super Mario Bros. Z, in absense of the official voice, the use of Cooler's (Andrew Chandler) lines effectively became the character's de-facto voice, with most fan animations and Game Mods featuring Mecha Sonic often reusing Cooler's lines, or recording lines that follow such interpretation.

Spider-Man:
While fans generally hear Josh Keaton as Peter Parker and consider him to be the definitive voice actor for the web-slinger, there are older Spidey fans who will probably read the web-head's adventures in the perfectly-fitting voice of Christopher Daniel Barnes from Spider-Man: The Animated Series. Others have even heard the voices of his movie actors, Tobey Maguire (Spider-Man Trilogy), Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spider-Man Series), and Tom Holland (Marvel Cinematic Universe). With the popularity of Spidey's Insomniac games, this has extended to Yuri Lowenthal as well.
The casting of J. K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson in the Spider-Man Trilogy was so perfect that not hearing a voice like his coming out of the character is practically an impossibility. Before him, it was Ed Asner's gruff, somewhat nasal tone for Spider-Man: The Animated Series, which also had the late Roscoe Lee Brown's distinct voice for Wilson Fisk, The Kingpin. Fans also tend to hear Daran Norris as J. Jonah Jameson from The Spectacular Spider-Man, due to the fact that he had managed to emulate J.K. Simmons' voice while still putting in a great performance as the ill-tempered publisher of the Daily Bugle.
Most Spidey fans, especially those who are fans of the 2000 Spider-Man game see Daran Norris as the quintessential Venom voice; giving him a Large Ham voice with a comical tone to it, perfectly combining Venom's scare factor and sense of humor. Bonus points for Daran being one of the few Venom voices who didn't have a voice filter - the voice was done completely naturally. On the other hand, a sizable amount of fans also prefer either Hank Azarianote his voice from Spider-Man: The Animated Series, Ben Diskinnote his voice from Spectacular Spider-Man Tom Hardynote his voice from Venom, Keith Szarabajkanote his voice from Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, or Tony Toddnote his voice from Marvel's Spider-Man 2—just like with Norris, Todd's Venom voice is completely unfiltered.
Fans usually tend to hear either Kirsten Dunst, Vanessa Marshall, Tara Strong, or Laura Bailey as Mary Jane Watson; Lacey Chabert or Emma Stone for Gwen Stacy; Dove Cameron or Hailee Steinfeld as Spider-Gwen; Jennifer Hale, Tricia Helfer, or Erica Lindbeck as Black Cat; and Donald Glover, Nadji Jeter or Shameik Moore as Miles Morales.
Seen Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse? Congratulations, you now read Spider-Ham in John Mulaney's voice.
You might now be hearing Nicolas Cage as Spider-Man Noir. Or if you think he's too comedic, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions proposes the aforementioned Christopher Daniel Barnes as a more serious voice for Noir.
While those who played Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions tend to hear Dan Gilvezan's voice when they read the lines of Spider-Man 2099, some fans would rather prefer listening to Christopher Daniel Barnes' voice in Spider-Man: Edge of Time for a more serious portrayal of Miguel. Alternatively, there's Oscar Isaac for those who watched Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
Alfred Molina is Doctor Octopus. Though others have Tom Kenny, Efrem Zimbalist Jr., Peter MacNicol, and William Salyers.
Thanks to his iconic (and hammy) performance, Willem Dafoe is Norman Osborn for many fans. Alternates do exist in the form of Neil Ross for both personas, Steve Blum as the Goblin, and/or Alan Rachins or Mark Rolston for Osborn.
Harry Osborn is either James Franco, Matt Lanter, or James Arnold Taylor.
Thomas Haden Church or John DiMaggio are Sandman.
For many, Cliff Robertson or Ed Asner are Uncle Ben. For Aunt May, Linda Gary, Julie Bennett, Rosemary Harris, Deborah Strang, Nancy Linari, or Lily Tomlin are the popular choices.
For many fans, Carnage is either Scott Cleverdon and Dee Bradley Baker.

When Invader Zim got a comic continuation, Jhonen Vasquez addressed the most obvious problem of losing the show's amazing voice work. However, he noted this trope would be in effect, and the first issue actually went so far as to list the show's voice actors on the credits page.

The Incredible Hulk:
For many, Lou Ferrigno is the Hulk.
For the titular character's cousin She-Hulk, there's Lisa Zane, Cree Summer, Rebecca Shoichet, Maria Canals Barrera, or Eliza Dushku. There's also Tatiana Maslany for those who are fans of her live-action adaptation in the MCU.
For those who heavily admire Hulk over the Marvel Cinematic Universe tend to hear Eric Bana as Bruce Banner, Jennifer Connelly as Betty Ross, Nick Nolte as Brian Banner and Sam Elliott as General Ross.
For General "Thunderbolt" Ross, there's the aforementioned Sam Elliott, William Hurt (the MCU), or Clancy Brown (the Marvel Universe shows), either as Ross as himself or as the Red Hulk.
For fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe they tend to hear either Edward Norton or Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner, depending on if they liked the 2008 The Incredible Hulk or not.

Regarding the Penguins from the Madagascar franchise, even though Chris Miller and Christopher Knights are the the original voices for Kowalski and Private, a lot of people consider their replacement actors, Jeff Bennett and James Patrick Stuart, to be the definitive voices for them mainly due to how they provided a lot of charisma to their personalities. This is taken a step further in which people think that the latter two should've returned for Penguins of Madagascar rather than the former two.

Among those who were introduced to the games in the 21st century, Bowser is typically associated with Scott Burns' portrayal from Super Mario Sunshine, thanks to it being the only time Bowser was ever fully voiced in a mainline Mario title. Burns' version of Bowser is so firmly etched into the public consciousness that it influenced incumbent voice actor Kenny James' take on the role.

And after that, try reading The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy after watching the movie without interpreting the characters as their movie counterparts. Marvin and the Narrator are probably the best examples. If you've heard the radio series or seen the BBC TV series, it's hard not to hear Simon Jones as Arthur Dent, though this was deliberate. Douglas Adams wrote the character with Jones in mind.

Inspector Morse novels by Colin Dexter, given the definitive portrayals of Morse and Lewis by John Thaw and Kevin Whately respectively, to the point that Dexter started writing the characters with the actors in mind.

It isn't possible to read any of the Sharpe novels by Bernard Cornwell and not hear all Sharpe's dialogue in Sean Bean's accent. Especially since Cornwell Ret Canoned in that Sharpe grew up in Yorkshire.

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power:
For fans of SPOP, it's all but impossible to hear AJ Michalka's voice in other roles — such as Stevonnie — without thinking of her performance as Catra.
Similarly, Hordak was one of voice actor Keston John's first major roles, and he's done such a phenomenal job in making the role his own that it's hard to hear John's voice in other roles — such as Darius — without being reminded of Hordak.

Disney has strict policies when it comes to voicing their most iconic characters. No matter what other characters sound like, Mickey Mouse needs to sound like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck needs to sound like Donald Duck, Goofy needs to sound like Goofy, and so on. Since those characters' voices are so iconic, and so ingrained into pop culture, they'll accept nothing less than exact impressions. That said, the various voices over the years have had subtle and not so subtle differences that make the various takes on the voices distinct in fans' ears. As such, fans that grew up in the 90s and 2000s can't hear anyone but Wayne Allwine, Tony Anselmo and Bill Farmer as Mickey, Donald and Goofy.

Reading Sabrina the Teenage Witch comics may make you hear her voice as Melissa Joan Hart. Similarly you might hear Nick Bakay's voice when reading Salem's dialogue.

Try and read any of the Paddington Bear bears without hearing the voice of Ben Whishaw as the titular bear from the live-action films and The Adventures of Paddington. It's harder than it sounds. Older fans are more likely to either hear the voice of Michael Hordern (from the BBC short series), Charlie Adler (from the 1989-1990 cartoon), or Jonathan Kydd (from the late '90s cartoon) instead.

Due to the English dubs for The Fantastic Adventures of Unico and Unico in the Island of Magic giving some surprisingly decent voice performances compared to other English dubs of anime from that period. A lot of North American and Canadian fans will easily hear Barbara Goodson's charming and cute performance as the titular character when reading the official English translation of the original Osamu Tezuka manga series and the upcoming re-imagining manga.
To a similar degree, Cheryl Chase as Beezle, Robin Levenson as Chao/Katy (later renamed to "Chloe" in Unico: Awakening), and Lara Cody as Piro/Marusu (known as "Sphinx's Daughter" in the English dub).

Fantastic Four:
Fans have the tendency of hearing Dee Bradley Baker, Beau Weaver, Gerald Mohr, Ioan Gruffudd or John Krasinski as Mr. Fantastic; Jessica Alba, Erin Torpey or Lori Alan as the the Invisible Woman; David Kaufman, Quinton Flynn, or even Chris Evans as the Human Torch; and Fred Tatasciore, the late Chuck McCann, Michael Chiklis or Dave Boat as the Thing when reading their lines from anywhere.
Chiklis is considered a definitive portrayal of the Thing that he not only returned to the 2005 game but also an episode of Robot Chicken.
Fans also tend to read Dr. Doom's lines and revelations from just about anywhere in the voice of Lex Lang, Simon Templeman, Paul Dobson, Maurice LaMarche, or Julian McMahon.
Fans like to read the Silver Surfer's lines in the voice of Laurence Fishburne.

The Lord of the Rings the whole damn cast is iconic, but here are some notable examples:
Sean Astin's distinctive accent for Samwise Gamgee in the films is very similar to one of the most famous (extant) audio narrations of the book, though Astin claims he wasn't aware of the audio version. Eerily, Sam is never actually written with such an accent in the books, making it all the weirder.
Sean Bean as Boromir. Despite or perhaps because of his distinctive Sheffield, Yorkshire accent (as in all of his roles) that no one else in the films has.
Christopher Lee was born to be the voice of Saruman. He even mentions this trope during a behind the scenes featurette.
Speaking of distinctive accents, Billy Boyd's Scottish tone as Pippin, Dominic Monaghan's slight Manchester twang as Merry and John Rhys-Davies' deep, guttural Welsh-Scottish mix as Gimli (and Treebeard).
Ian McKellen as Gandalf, to the extent that the thought of re-casting him in The Hobbit was deemed unthinkable.
Also applies to his French voice, the late Jean Piat, who brought much memorable gravitas and suaveness (though with much more wickedness, of course) to Scar in The Lion King and Claude Frollo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
And of course, Andy Serkis as Gollum.
Though some older fans might prefer Brother Theodore and Richard Boone as Gollum and Smaug, respectively.
From The Hobbit, some of the Dwarf actors' regional accents stand out, like Ken Stott and Graham McTavish's Scottish accents as Balin and Dwalin and James Nesbitt's Irish accent as Bofur. Also, Sylvester McCoy's distintive Scottish brouge as Radagast the Brown and Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug.

Kingdom Hearts:
Billy Zane voiced Ansem, Seeker of Darkness in the first game but was replaced by Richard Epcar for every subsequent game. Zane's performance is iconic due in no small part to First Installment Wins, and Epcar unfortunately got off to a rough start by being directed to try and out-ham Zane with subpar results. Epcar eventually found his footing and was able to deliver his own, unique take on the character and his reception certainly improved, but even those who like him just fine as Ansem will likely still prefer Zane. When Kingdom Hearts III rolled around, a mod was even released by a fan replacing Epcar's voice clips with Zane's.
In a unique example where it applies to the same actor, it's hard to see Sora's Kingdom Hearts form and not want to hear Haley Joel Osment's pre-puberty voice for the character. However, since Osment still voices the character even when he reverts to his Kingdom Hearts age, it's rather off-putting to hear his deeper voice in his younger self.
While Akio Ōtsuka was able to successfully succeed his late father Chikao as Master Xehanort, Rutger Hauer generally had a mixed reception due to turning the character into a Cold Ham after the late Leonard Nimoy's take. Christopher Lloyd would take over after Hauer's own death, and managed to escape this in regards to Nimoy, since he was already a fan-favorite choice for a recasting in the wake of Nimoy's death, and is generally agreed to have made the character his own.
Wayne Allwine was and still is Mickey Mouse for generations who were growing up in either the 1990's or 2000's. When Allwine passed away and was replaced by Bret Iwan, it caused no shortage of disconnect simply because Allwine was Mickey.

Deadshot is either Michael Rosenbaum (DCAU), Chris Cox (most of the Batman: Arkham Series), Neal McDonough (Batman: Assault on Arkham), Christian Slater (Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay and Justice League Action), Will Smith (DCEU), or Matthew Mercer (Injustice).

Even across various iterations of the character, most fans will hear any character named Optimus Prime as Peter Cullen when reading the various comics. While notables such as David Kaye, Neil Kaplan, and Gary Chalk have all voiced characters named Optimus Prime, most people know Peter's deep, sagely voice from the original cartoon, live-action movies, video games, and Transformers: Prime.
With Ratchet, you might hear either Corey Burton or Jeffrey Combs. Perhaps interchangeably.
And with Soundwave, you'll probably hear the heavily modulated voice of Frank Welker.
For the mighty ruler of the Decepticons, Megatron, fans tend to hear Frank Welker (either using his original voice or his more modern take), David Kaye, or Corey Burton.
For Starscream fans tend to hear either Chris Latta or Steve Blum. However, there are fans who imagine Tom Kenny or Charlie Adler too.
With Shockwave, you'll hear Corey Burton or David Sobolov.
When it comes to Unicron, people might hear either Orson Welles or John Noble.

Try to read Charlotte's Web and NOT hear either Debbie Reynolds or Julia Roberts speaking the eponymous spider's lines. Go ahead. We dare ya.

Though some older fans might prefer Brother Theodore and Richard Boone as Gollum and Smaug, respectively.
