Press won't help very much. I wouldn't waste the money pressing an already creased foil cover.

Most likely cheaper to just buy another issue.

No, pressing isn’t magic.

There is nothing wrong with that comic book. It remains entirely readable, which is the entire purpose of comics in the first place.

I’m going to use this as my excuse the next time I ram a huge dent into someone’s car.

This must be the ebay seller who packaged it poorly. I've had this reply before from sellers when I've mentioned a book arrived damage.
