the appearance of the first issue of...

: agree with 'with the issue' -- or could also be 'with the publication of the first issue'. NOT the "first number'' -- "issue'" is the best translation for 'numero' here.

The definition of " come to light" in the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English is the same as "be brought to light". If new information comes to light, it becomes known.
