The Invisible Man (1933) is based on the novel by H.G. Wells. In this film H.G. Wells gets a credit for original material. In the second film of the series (The Invisible Man Returns from 1940), he is credited in th following way:

Is this a valid credit for original material or original characters or is this an invalid credit?

Unless some of the characters from The Invisible Man novel are carried over to this film then no credit.

There's no appearance of a character from the first film, but the main character is mentioned in the second film. Also one character is the brother of the first film's main character.
Does this count?

Agreed, no credit.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.
