That would have explained part of what I was seeing, as I noticed this when testing seriesmeta, and for that, I tried epubs for the first time in a while.

Kepubs uses the image that is marked as the cover. This might have changed somewhere. In the past, it had to be marked in the OPF as 'properties="cover-image"'. Now it looks like the cover meta item needs to point to it correctly. Without either of these, I get the default cover with the title and format on it.

That would explain the other part of what I was seeing, and I probably thought it was the first page because the half-cover looked a lot like that.
I guess I was partly misguided about this, but there still seems to be a need for a cover-image fixer, as a few of my books that used to import correctly now have an ugly cover, so I'm working on that now. I'll also look into the second thing you said, as that's probably something I can fix in kepubify.
