I would like to add these in the docbook FAQ: John Beard kindly found a
solution for the cover page image that was easy enough for me.

For pdf:

a2x -f pdf --dblatex-opts "-P latex.output.revhistory=0 -P doc.publisher.show=0 
-s pdf-cover-dblatex.sty" document.adoc

where the content of pdf-cover-dblatex.sty is:

\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}
\ProvidesPackage{asciidoc-dblatex}[2012/10/24 AsciiDoc DocBook Style]

%% Just use the original package and pass the options.
\RequirePackageWithOptions{docbook}

% custom cover page
\def\DBKcover{
  \thispagestyle{empty}
  \begin{center}
  \includegraphics[width=1\textwidth]{images/logo.png} \\
  \vspace*{1in}
  \bfseries
  \sffamily
  {\Huge \DBKtitle \\[1ex]\large ~~~ \\}
  \vspace*{2.1in}
  {\color{blue} \Huge ~~~ \\ \huge ~~~ \\}
  \vspace*{2.1in}
  {\Large\DBKdate \\}
  \end{center}
  \vfill
}

For epub:

a2x -f epub -a docinfo document.adoc

where the content of document-docinfo.xml is:

<mediaobject role="cover">
  <imageobject>
   <imagedata fileref="images/logo.png" format="PNG"/>
  </imageobject>
  <textobject>
    <phrase>DOCTITLE</phrase>
  </textobject>
</mediaobject>

DOCTITLE should and could be substituted with a simple sed script like this:

sed -e 's/DOCTITLE/Real title/' document-docinfo.xml

Hope someone will find this useful.

bye

I know a joke about UDP, but you might not get it.
