I have this comic book in Russian that uses characters I don't know from my Russian learning materials.
Please see my image. There are:
- small m
- и with line on top
- g
- mirrored s
Which 'standard' characters do they represent?

-small m = т
-и with line on top = й
-g = д
-mirrored s = г
These are handwriting-style characters, but some of them (m, -и with line on top and mirrored s in particular) are also used in the italicized versions of some Russian fonts like Arial and Times New Roman, to name a couple.
д: like curved Greek small delta, similar to partial derivative sign. This seems to be a more common shape for in computer fonts.
