I have searched all over the net and can not find a complete history of Chikara and its cards. Does anyone know where I can find one?
Pro Wrestling History has just the tournaments and Pro Wrestling Wiki has the first season, plus a few misc. cards after. There is no other place with good details.
Any help here?

I have the Chikara Yearbook, which was just released for 2011 updates, which has an exhaustive history of every card. I'll bring it to G-con with me if anyone wants to take a look, but its a great resource to have.

Can I buy that somewhere TM? Maybe their online store?

I have this, Vegas, and it is well worth it. As for the DVD's I have all of the Best of's and one or two shows. Such a fun fed to follow as it has a mix of everything. Just my two cents.

Since I just recently watched "Chaos in the Sea of Lost Souls" from last January (as a G.I.JOE fan, I loved that DVD cover art based on the cover of G.I.JOE #27 which was part of the origin of Snake Eyes,) the DVD I ordered was the next show "Caught in a Cauldron of Hate."

I got my yearbook in the mail today!
I was surprised to see it so soon though because I placed the order on Sunday afternoon and only 3 days later it arrived through regular mail here in Las Vegas.
The yearbook is really cool. It has:
1) a 115 page company history chapter
2) a complete show results chapter dating back to May 25, 2002 (the main event of that show was Mike Quackenbush, Don Montoya, and Reckless Youth vs CM Punk, Colt Cabana, and Chris Hero.) All show results are listed up through the March 13, 2011 show "Creatures from the Tar Swamp."
3) 2 pages on the CHIKARA Wrestle factory
4) 3 pages on all the terms of the CHIKARA Wrestle Factory including the Maestros for each term and the wrestlers from each term (for example, Hallowicked was among the wrestlers from the First Team while Jigsaw, Eddie Kingston, and Gran Akuma are among the wrestlers from the Second Term, etc)
5) a list of CHIKARA's co-productions
The book is physically shaped about the same size as the GWF Files Volumes 1 and 2, has a total of 264 pages, and looks like a great resource for anyone looking to start a CHIKARA fed with the upcoming set!
