I believe that Tom Jones is a real hero. Tom Jones is a bastard, he sleeps around, and he has a moral compass. He is in love with sofia, but he sleeps with Molly. Allsworthy is his adoptive father but he does not live the life of someone who is rich. But yet he does have a moral compass one that will let him defend someone who is being picked upon because of his race and this shows me the reader that he is a hero with flaws one that needs to be rooted for and not against.
To me I would call Tom Jones the Peter Parker/ Spider-Man of 18th century and it makes him a hero in this reader's eyes.
