    I'm just not that familiar with him. Are his stats different from classic version?

    I'm not sure if he still wears his vibranium suit but his stats should be higher since his power upgrade to the king of the dead

    Ahhh. I see. I just think those boots he wore were the s***. He could run up walls and across water. Then the way the suit worked making bullets fall to the ground when they were absorbed.

    But thanks for the input. Maybe someone else will know.

    You could be right. I hope not though. I liked the suit.

    Doom took the Vibranium and BP couldn't stop him so he shut all of it down

    The short of it is that nobody knows if he still wears the vibranium suit. One could certainly suggest so because it's been a defining part of his arsenal from the 90s-2000s (Priest to Hudlin runs), but we haven't received official confirmation yet. And BP has spent many years in his career with an ordinary suit.

    In terms of his stats, he was originally defined as a low-level enhanced human, around present-day Captain America. This was a result of the Heart-shaped herb. As of today though, he has been upgraded to superhuman levels as the King of the Dead (confirmed by Hickman), and stores all the memories and 'strength' of the past Panthers. To what extent, we don't know though.
