Just Like A Fairy Tale (Russian: Как в Ñ�казке) is the third story arc (and fourth book) in the Major Grom comic series. It ran for six issues (#19–#24), which were written by Artyom Gabrelyanov and Evgeny Fedotov.Saint Petersburg is rocked by the most daring robbery in the history of the city: in broad daylight, three gun-toting women dressed as Disney princesses burst into the northern branch of Ros-Garant Bank and take all the cash, before escaping in a luxurious white convertible—which seemingly vanishes in the middle of a busy street. Major Igor Grom takes on the investigation of a case that will baffle even the most experienced investigator...

comment
Adaptational Skimpiness: The "princesses" all wear short-shortsnote a mini skirt, in the case of "Cinderella" and bikini-like tops: a far cry from the conservative costumes worn by the characters they're representing. This was done in part to avoid legal repercussions (see below).

Falsely Reformed Villain: Discussed: while Isaev is now a legitimate businessman, many believe that he still has connections to The Mafia. Whether this is actually the case isn't revealed.

Breather Episode
 Just Like A Fairy Tale (Comic Book) / int_80a247a9
comment
Breather Episode: While it ends on a tragic note, "Just Like A Fairy Tale" is the most light-hearted Grom story thus far, giving readers a respite between the brutally violent "Saint Patrick's Day" and "The Game" (which is both brutally violent and gut-wrenchingly sad).

Cool Car

comment
Cool Car: Grigory's Ferrari convertible. Not only is it souped-up to go above the normal speed, but the paint was custom-made in Grigory's shop to change color when exposed to sunlight (allowing him to "vanish" in traffic).

Bare Midriffs Are Feminine: The three female gang members all wear crop tops that expose their torsos; by contrast, the only male member of the gang wears a white racing jumpsuit that covers his entire body.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: Every member of the gang dresses like a Disney character: Olga is Cinderella, Anna is Jasmine, and Ekaterina is Ariel; Grigory, the Getaway Driver, represents Prince Charming (with a white jumpsuit and helmet in place of a suit of armor, and a white convertible standing in for a white horse).

Writing Around Trademarks

comment
Writing Around Trademarks: To avoid legal trouble, the costumes worn by the gang just barely resemble the characters they represent (save for their hairpieces, which are distinctive). Grigory (as Prince Charming) doesn't even bother with a costume, wearing a standard white racing jumpsuit and helmet.
