Over his career he has won and been nominated for numerous awards including the Web Cartoonists’ Choice Award, Yalsa, Animex, and the Jos Shuster Canadian Comic Award for Outstanding Writer.

Patch Zircher's early career as an illustrator began with production of several completed works for Villains and Vigilantes, Champions and other pen-and-paper role-playing games, as well as work for independent comic book publishers. He illustrated a number of projects for Caliber Comics including Dragon Star II, Jason and the Argonauts (under the Tome Press banner), and his own creator owned series, Samurai 7 (released under Caliber's Gauntlet imprint).
Following this he went on to work largely for Marvel Comics on titles including Iron Man, Thunderbolts and New Warriors. He also did a considerable amount of work for DC, primarily on Nightwing and on Shadowman for Valiant Comics.

In 2008, Dagnino abandoned the advertising industry to start to work for DC Comics exclusively. That same year he published his first children's book (Kasandra y la Rebelión de los niños).

Dagnino became the regular penciller of the comic Superman with issue #692. He also did the art for the Green Lantern Prequel Special: Sinestro #1.

As part of DC Comics' company-wide 2011 title relaunch, The New 52, Dagnino was made the artist on Resurrection Man. He subsequently took over art duties on Suicide Squad, beginning with issue #9.
