I have my doubts this is what you are seeking, but it is the only
syndicated vocabulary comic strip appearing in newspapers, that I have
thus far found:
VOCONs
http://syndicate.com/comicstrip.html
Outside of that, let me recommend two excellent "Word-A-Day" type
sites, albeit they do not seem to feature a comic strip. They do have
e-mail mailing lists to which you can subscribe.

Merriam-Webster and Oxford English Dictionaries, each have their own
word-of-a-day pages and you may wish to visit those two sites, as well:
