New, official Spider-Man stories get released all the time. What's stopping the writers from including a school shooting in a plot? Maybe they already have. Maybe school shootings aren't a big problem in Queens (that's where Peter Parker is from, right?).

Good writers don’t want to give Marvel their ideas or characters… so we just get dumb shit like Mary Jane as Jackpot now.
