It's work - just need right build. He isn't someone like WW, who can jungle naked without runes.. Karthus need perfect build(runes, masteries etc) to jungle(9% spellvamp is a must, as well as armor seals and may be marks too, if you aren't confident) - but more than this is a vaste(of item slot) most of the time). Also forget  about those jungle items - they aren't that good for you and other core items(like tear, ZH etc) are a lor more important. And hekill  isn't that easy conterjungle.. through some can do it(jarvan, kha, lee - really burstly mobile early game champs, if they have penetration quints and reds to burst you in second) - while others, like Mundo, Udyr or that Shyvana etc could be easy killed with superior Q damage.
