I own all three of these books, as well as about 20 other books about the comics medium. I've studied them!
Personally, I'd recommend skipping Reinventing Comics, unless you really want to own the entire trilogy... most of the content of it is reductive, or covered better in the other two, and much of it is talking about webcomics as a new phenomenon, and speculating about what the medium might accomplish with digital technology (most of this didn't come to pass, because the amount of effort involved in merging the comic format with programming is prohibitive - with some extremely notable exceptions to this.)
