It's not a bad start, but there are a few key problems with this piece. The one I noticed right away was the hands. The trolls seem to have hands similar to humans, with five digits, one of them opposable. Here, however, you've given him only 3 digits on each hand, and I'm not sure if the absence of an actual 'hand' was a stylistic choice or an oversight. I could see this being a stylistic choice, given that Andrew's most recent previous works, "Problem Sleuth", made use of hands very similar to those. However in his case, the digits were of similar size and had a certain curvature to them. Here, you've got very straight, spread out fingers.
There are some other questionable design choices, but I'll address the ones that don't work for the character first. The most obvious one is the design on his shirt. If you look closely, the lines and dots on the "Cancer" sign are actually only connected on one end, with a space in between towards the middle. Here, you've got it completely connected, forming a solid object. Also, the "Cancer" sign in Homestuck at least has it's circular parts being connected to the lines towards the top, rather than at the center. They should be being pushed inwards, so to speak.
The only other thing I really noticed was that you made Karkat's horns much too narrow. Karkat's horns are notable for being rather round and stubby. Here you've got them rather narrow and small, more like Sollux's. Given your minimalist style, it would be best to avoid that kind of potential confusion in the future by making it very clear which troll you're drawing by the horns.

The Felt sees Betty Crocker as a potential enemy, so of course we're taking arms against her! From now on, we're making our own cakes with fresh ingredients!

Well darn, I don't want to work with the Batter Witch but does that mean that I, as a member of the Illumiyahtzee, will have to sink to the level of working with a Felt member? Oh what one does to stop evil Batter Witches.

You have a point. Give me a moment and I shall have a proper avatar on hand.
Yeah, double pun. The Oldkids are coming from the scratched session, and the way to fight the batter witch is with homemade pastries not filled with her evil and powdered milk. This is the only way the rebellion can succeed. It is time to unsheath our whisks, butter our pans, and take the fight to the mixer! This time is not one for levity, but action! Prepare for your inevitable defeat Batter-wraiths!

Just a reminder,brand yourself with the symbol of the rebellion (Quaker logo) to show you're with us.

It won't be so bad. When we're not trying to beat the crap out of each other, we could go to McTroll's and grab some lusus burgers together.
