2000s Marvel Comics Back Cover Circular Shaped Impressions 2 2

Has anyone noticed circles near the spine on the back covers of early to mid 2000s Marvel comics? They’re usually faint and “C” shaped. I’ve mainly noticed them on 2003-2006 comics. Usually on the back but sometimes on the front. Even after pressing they’re are still visible but very faint. I’ve seen them on Captain America, Emma Frost, Hulk, NYX... yes on big key books. I’m not sure if many catch this. I personally don’t consider it a flaw or defect like a printing crease but it bothers me greatly. Here’s a pic of an Emma Frost back cover

It might be a cup mark.

That is an impression I’ve seen on dozens of issues. That pic was just a quick photo example

I come across them all the time.

Then it might be from how the wrap was put on, weird.

That’s what I was thinking since it’s near the spine

Young Avengers 1 first series.

edit: back cover too. I bought 3 copies when they were released and they all had it. I submitted one for prescreen 9.8 and it passed.
