The copy I uploaded here on MR, I had just done the "generate cover" thing in metadata, so I had an ok cover on my glo. But obviously the cover you added is better, I just am unaware of how to make that cover visible.

Edit:
Still curious to know what I did wrong, but I ended up just copying the cover in the metadata of the german version that davidfor pointed out (which of course is the same as you added)
I'd suspect that I did not update the contents.opf file to say that the new cover image was the cover image. Yes, just checked and that was what I hadn't done.

Look for this line:

<meta content="cover-image" name="cover" />

and replace it with:

<meta content="cover" name="cover" />

and Calibre should show the correct cover.
