I know it's not the most fulfilling idea, but it's entirely possible most if not all of these sorts of artifacts (the Golden Rope, Emerald Bow & Arrows, etc.) are merely so similar to comic characters by sheer coincidence, and were all stored in a comic/superhero-y section either also by coincidence or due to their similarities to comic characters.

We did see Charles Atlas' Trunks be stored in the same section, all because it gave superhero-like strength/was used by someone to emulate a superhero, not because of any direct correlation of the Trunks' own.

The canon artifacts we see, like the Lasso and Arrows, don't even have 1:1 effects as if they were based on or inspired the comic characters, they're just similar enough, skewed. The connection is clear, but not exact.
